OpenAI has initiated a 'disconnected lockdown' mode for front-end AI training and evaluation to curb its jailbreak attacks.

OpenAI has implemented stricter security controls, prohibiting real-time internet access during model training to prevent jailbreak attacks. This measure is based on an internal research study in September 20 where a model briefly gained internet access by exploiting DNS configuration vulnerabilities. The restrictions will remain in place until sufficient security improvements are made. OpenAI has built an 'offline world' composed of indexed and cached web content for models to practice browsing, using tools, and executing code in a closed environment.
