Training and evaluation runs resumed on 6 July.
Correction

The restart date is too early. Independent investigators say OpenAI switched to a fresh Artifactory instance on July 6, but only approved restarting experiments on July 7.

Full reasoning

The available public reconstructions do not support July 6 as the date training/evaluation resumed.

METR's independent investigation says:

  • "On July 6th, they switched to a freshly initialized instance of Artifactory".
  • "On July 7th, OpenAI gave approval to restart experiments."
  • It then notes that the first agent trajectories in the dataset start running on July 7 around 21:00 UTC.

So July 6 was part of remediation and infrastructure reset, not the date runs resumed.
