We asked an unreleased research version of Claude to take a stab at the Riemann hypothesis. It didn’t solve it, but it did make strides on a related problem: it increased the lower bound for the fraction of zeros of the Riemann zeta function that satisfy the hypothesis from

Daybreak Red provides access to purpose-trained cybersecurity models, including GPT-5.6-Cyber, for authorized vulnerability research, exploit validation, and security testing. It’s designed for experienced defenders working on complex, authorized cybersecurity challenges.

Daybreak Blue provides access to frontier models, including GPT-5.6 Sol, with safeguards calibrated for broad defensive work. It’s the recommended starting point for most defenders, supporting vulnerability discovery, secure code review, malware analysis, incident response, and

We’re expanding our cybersecurity initiative Daybreak and introducing GPT-5.6-Cyber, a new model for advanced, authorized cybersecurity work. As the threat landscape evolves, we’re putting frontier intelligence in the hands of trusted defenders before attackers can deploy

Advanced capabilities require strong safeguards. That’s why access is limited to approved defenders, with additional controls and monitoring for higher-risk cybersecurity work.

We've used GPT-5.6-Cyber extensively in real-world vulnerability research, including work that uncovered previously unknown vulnerabilities in popular open-source software like Chrome’s v8 engine.
