While at ai-dailybrief.ai, you can also find the link to our March AI Usage Pulse Survey.

I'll have this open for a couple more days and would so appreciate you taking a couple minutes to do it.

It allows us to share better data around how usage patterns in AI are changing, which is something that I think can be really valuable for people.

You can also find more information on the website about things like our newsletter, which is officially back and has all the links for every day's show.

Or you can find links to related experiences like Enterprise Claw, which is basically the enterprise-grade version of Arc Free Claw Camp that's supported and led by Nufar Gaspar.

Registration for that is closing at the beginning of next week, so check it out at enterpriseclaw.ai.

OpenAI obviously could not let Anthropic have all the fun when it comes to models too powerful to release to the general public.

On Thursday morning, Axios reported that OpenAI also plans a staggered rollout of their new model because, once again, of the cybersecurity risk.

Now, this is just from one source, but it isn't all that surprising to see.

Certainly, it doesn't seem to be surprising the denizens of AI Twitter, and some think that this is a forced response to Anthropic.

OpenAI will not release Spud.

The information reported just a few weeks ago that it was set to be released, quote, in a few weeks.

Greg Brockman talked about it on the Big Technology podcast.

Dario forced their hand.

Total Anthropic victory.

Leo Synthwave DD simply says, lol.

Dax from OpenCode writes, this was already a thing since at least GPT 5.3, but now we have to suffer a cycle of confusing mystery and go through this whole, well, it was BS last time, but maybe this time is different.

We're all just caught between these two companies.

I think Dan Shipper nails it when he writes, the new status symbol is making a model so powerful you can't release it.
