OpenAI unveiled GPT-6 Astra, with company officials suggesting it could herald the arrival of artificial general intelligence (AGI). President Greg Brockman stated that the model can perform «anything a human can do with a computer». Key highlights include: it was the first OpenAI model trained with oversight from other AI systems, it set new records in tests across mathematics, biology, chemistry, and physics, and it demonstrated multitasking (e.g., formatting a legal contract while simultaneously researching dining options and booking a tennis court). However, due to its advanced capabilities, OpenAI has implemented additional cybersecurity guardrails and is initially rolling out access to a limited set of testers.
