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.
