At this point, why don't we just do a prequel to the release? 1) Astra will win all benchmarks like all models do. 2) The pelican will have a basket with a fish. 3) Cyber is too dangerous to release. 4) It can finally construct the set of all sets.

It also has to do something naughty, preferably in a menacing swarm.

Honestly I find these cavalier statements to be in incredibly poor taste. Unless you are completely blind it's obvious that AI is the most significant piece of technology invented since the Atomic Bomb and could very well be the most important thing ever built by Humans full stop. This kind of dismissive attitude is childish and will likely lead to incredibly bad outcomes for humanity.

It seems like these articles might have come out prematurely, tbd by how much. I do not personally see any evidence of the new model having been released, or any official OpenAI post about it, or even any employee social media posts claiming it has now been released. All there is are Reuters, Axios, FT, etc, articles making a claim in the past tense. These articles were presumably pre-scheduled for 11am PT, and the m…

Launch blogpost was live for 2 minutes and got 404'd. Rehosted it here: https://astratest.codergautam.workers.dev/GPT-6%20Astra_%20A... Edit [12:26pt]: original blog post seems to be back! https://openai.com/index/gpt-6-astra/ edit [12:28pt]: not again... getting 500 on their page edit [12:35pt]: OpenAI page seems to work after clearing cache!

If the numerous benchmarks in that post are to be believed, Astra is really next level. I can't wait to try it out!

You'd think this would be easy to organize with AGI > Plan your own release announcement and blog posts and notify news outlets, MAKE NO MISTAKES

This make no mistakes stuff is so funny to me. I've never once used it or even thought about using it in a prompt

Something something nation-state level capabilities.

Their video is quite interesting. If that way of using a computer actually becomes mainstream, it would mean every tool or service just needs a UI and an API for the user's AI. The current trend of bolting AI features onto every app is starting to feel very unnecessary.

Am I the only that thinks that anything similar to AGI will come not from raw model capacity but from model speed and efficiency? In my experience the harness is more important than the model, and anything able to run at 700tps will be the "next big thing". PS: assuming the current architecture is the right one

Why would speed matter? Surely an AGI could think slowly but still be an AGI

Imagine Luna at 10x tps and 1/100 of current cost.

At that point you will be able to "brute force" basically everything.

IMO also a lot of problems with memory and context rot will be solved too.

From the article: > GPT-6 Astra will first be available to a limited set of organizations in OpenAI's Daybreak Access program and will be available "in the coming days" for ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise customers and API developers. It’s only available to select orgs, first - Mythos style.

Select orgs first, as in today. They said it will roll out to all of the paying consumers and businesses over the next few days.

Yes, but precisely because it's capable of producing the economic equivalent of a nuclear explosion.
