OpenAI removed the audio article feature reference from its Frontier Governance Framework post on July 18, 2026. The updated version no longer includes the "Listen to article 1:07" option that was present in the previous version. The framework's core governance content remains unchanged; this modification affects only the article's metadata and related content links displayed alongside the main framework document.
This change does not materially affect the consumer terms or operational implications of OpenAI's Frontier Governance Framework. The updated version maintains the same governance content addressing safety and security practices aligned with California's Transparency in Frontier AI Act and the EU AI Act's Code of Practice for General Purpose AI. The modification removes only the audio playback feature and updates the related content recommendations displayed alongside the framework document.
Audio playback feature removed from framework presentation; related content links updated.
