PHYSIX OBSERVATION
This leak lays top-tier prompt engineering out in the open, letting the industry copy the playbook directly and lowering the barrier to building one's own. But the model is granted permissions to autonomously fix bugs and operate a browser, and that security boundary deserves scrutiny. Good for users, but for OpenAI it means a shallower moat.
