What was said

""we took about 25% of our production engineers and said all of your projects are on hold. You are just securing now.""

Greg Brockman recalls OpenAI pausing some projects and reassigning around 25% of production engineers to security hardening. He says the company used its most capable model at the time to probe infrastructure, fix issues, and plans to repeat this with new model releases.
