   HN'ers which complained that "OpenAI can't design a proper sandbox, it's so easy, why wouldn't you airgap the network"? will now be "this is outrageous, more software lock-in, walled garden, war against general compute, next year they will put it in your laptop"

      Airgap what network? How is it gonna order you a burrito on doordash without a network?

      Or push to github?

         That's for when they're doing hacking tests that aren't supposed to be connected to the internet.

            My question with this point is that OpenAI’s office (or any office doing agentic research, really) is not in the same building as the DC that powers the models, so isn’t the only way to access the models over the internet?

               No reason why you couldn't do that research in the same buildings as the models.

               Or, more likely, control things at the network level so that packets from the LLMs you're investigating cannot leave the virtual network they're assigned to.
