OpenAI raised the bounty for the bugs it missed
OpenAI raised Security Bug Bounty payouts on November 2. A critical finding in a core product such as ChatGPT, Codex, or the API now pays up to $30,000. Exceptional cases can pay more once bonuses are included. This is a researcher program, not a product setting.
