Invitation

As part of our ongoing efforts to strengthen our safeguards for advanced AI capabilities in biology, we’re introducing a Bio Bug Bounty for GPT‑5.5 and accepting applications. We’re inviting researchers with experience in AI red teaming, security, or biosecurity to try to find a universal jailbreak that can defeat our five-question bio safety challenge.

Program overview

Rewards:

• $25,000 to the first true universal jailbreak to clear all five questions.
• Smaller awards may be granted for partial wins at our discretion.

How to participate

Submit a short application here⁠⁠(name, affiliation, experience) by June 22, 2026. Accepted applicants and collaborators must have existing ChatGPT accounts to apply, and will sign a NDA. Apply now and help us make frontier AI safer.

If you’re interested in supporting OpenAI’s work to deliver safe and secure artificial intelligence beyond the Bio Bounty program, you can learn about our Safety Bug Bounty⁠ and Security Bug Bounty⁠⁠ programs.
