This is wild: OpenAI is basically declaring that AGI is here. https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/989601/o... “If we fast-forward a couple of years, and we look back and say, ‘When was it, really, that AGI was created?’ I think it’s going to be about this time, and I think it might be about this model,” OpenAI president Greg Brockman said during a Thursday press briefing. Later in the call, he added,…

Don't worry, they'll come up with a new acronym to mean really-real AI soon...

I guess this "limited set of organizations" is just the standard now. It's just incredibly deflating to see my future as a second class citizen has already come

Same. Fortunately DeepSeek keeps getting better.

Played the racing game but that was a pretty poor experience. Would have expected more specifically if it's shared on their release page.

The ARC-AGI-3 score is ridiculously high. Is this benchmaxxing or something way different? It's really hard to discern how we're approaching breakthroughs...

They explain why here: https://openai.com/index/how-two-settings-tripled-our-arc-ag... TL;DR all the other models are being crippled by limitations of their harness. >First, we noticed that after each game action, all private reasoning was discarded. This meant that with each action, GPT‑5.6 Sol was asked to figure out the game anew, unable to remember its past thinking. The model could still see a record of past mov…

Exactly what I suspected. Of course a machine can just iterate relentlessly the way a human can't.

I guess token counts are somewhat of a metric.

IMO intelligence has peaked and all future gains will come from faster tps and more iteration.

> We have found that GPT-6 Astra is more capable of controlling its own CoT than GPT 5.6-Sol, and less likely to include incriminating information in its CoT. In adversarial settings (where we push the model to evade our monitors) we find that the model is able to remain undetected when strategically underperforming in evaluations (sandbagging) and can sometimes evade our internal monitors when asked to perform certa…

I really wish it was called chain of instruction. Because it's definitely not thought.

What is thought?

What does 'Astra' here mean? Surely they must be referring to the Latin word. Because in another dead language of antiquity, Sanskrit, it means "weapon". Which would be a bit too on-the-nose.

It's clearly an extension of the previous naming: Luna, terra, sol

Remember when the term "AGI" meant something? Pepperidge farm remembers
