Early release of Cloud Code as a research preview allowed rigorous safety testing before public launch
  • Cloud Code was used internally for 4‑5 months before public release to evaluate safety.
  • The early release acted as a research preview, giving the team real user data while retaining control.
  • Open‑source sandbox environments let external parties test agents safely.
  • Feedback from internal and external usage informed safety mitigations before scaling.
  • This strategy demonstrates how early, controlled exposure can accelerate safe AI deployment.
