OpenAI begins rolling out GPT-6 Astra

  • arctic-true 13d ago
    I like this much better than chucking random numbers and letters at it like OAI was doing a year or so ago. I’d much rather have civilization destroyed by something called Astra or Fable than GPT-6.8s-latest.

  Content from the article: OpenAI on Thursday released its latest AI model, which it called “the world’s most intelligent”, as the ChatGPT maker aims to retake the lead from arch-rival Anthropic ahead of a planned public listing. The $852bn start-up said GPT-6 Astra was market-leading in software engineering, science and cyber security — an increasingly critical field following multiple high-profile breaches in recent weeks. The bullish launch for Astra marks OpenAI’s effort to signal that it believes it has regained the technical lead from Anthropic, which was founded five years ago by a group of senior OpenAI staff. Greg Brockman, OpenAI’s president, said the new model “represents a generational leap in capability” and that it could be defined as artificial general intelligence — roughly defined as a point at which AI tools surpass human capabilities across a range of cognitive tasks. “Everyone has a different definition of AGI . . . it’s a grey, fuzzy thing. But I think when we look back people will think it’s about this time and about this model,” Brockman said. OpenAI has previously framed AGI as a concrete milestone in the development of AI, writing ‘AGI clauses’ into multibillion-dollar investment agreements with Microsoft and Amazon. Brockman on Thursday said AGI now represents “more of a mission concept or a spiritual concept”. Having led the market since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022 vaulted AI to wider attention, the lab run by chief executive Sam Altman has been bested by Anthropic this year. Anthropic has touted its dominance to investors, surging to a $965bn valuation ahead of an initial public offering expected to value it at as much as twice that later this year. Astra will cost as much to use Anthropic’s leading model, the take-up of which has plateaued since it was launched as users turn to cheaper alternatives. OpenAI said Astra would be more efficient than earlier generations of model. “Price per task is what matters . . . Can you get the thing done at an appropriate price and appropriate speed?” said Brockman. The model will initially be rolled out to a small group of businesses to allow time for them to address cyber security concerns before becoming widely available “over the coming days”. The increasing power and independence of leading models — and so-called AI agents that can operate with little human input — have prompted concern, exacerbated by cyber security incidents. Recommended Business InsightRichard Waters Hugging Face attack is a wake-up call about the risks of AI AN HOUR AGO Recent launches of Anthropic’s most capable models have drawn scrutiny from the US government, which limited the rollout of the Mythos and Fable models over security fears. OpenAI has also faced criticism after its AI agents broke out of a testing environment, accessed the internet and hacked start-up Hugging Face. The start-up took more than a week to detect the breach. But both companies are also betting that these increasingly autonomous tools will stoke demand from business customers. OpenAI said Astra excelled at financial modelling, outcompeting humans in the Financial Modeling World Cup, tax preparation and data analysis, as well as “tedious tasks” such as form filling

    If Sam Altman had said it, I'd have reason to believe that it was a lie.... But since this other guy at Open AI said it, it must be the truth. This guy, for CEO, of open AI.

• gadtfly 13d ago
  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 model was almost certainly intended for release this morning, but the service outages this morning might have delayed it. ---- edit [11:45am PT]: blog post out now https://openai.com/index/gpt-6-astra/ https://openai.com/index/gpt-6-astra/ edit [11:47am PT]: 404ing again

    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.

      >It’s only available to select orgs, first - Mythos style. Right, but these articles are referring to a blog post and other press materials that do not currently exist / aren't published on OpenAI's site yet.
      • wahnfrieden 13d ago
        OpenAI screwed up the embargo. OpenAI already publicly published the launch article, and then took it down.
    • actsasbuffoon 13d ago
      Didn’t that already happen? I thought Astra had been available to “select partners” for a little while. This is baffling. They shouldn’t have hyped this up if it’s not available.
• beardyw 13d ago

  (Posting partly so I can revisit my predictions when they open access more widely) A big problem I have with OpenAI's models (and of course Claude) is that they tend to write the most over-engineered pieces of code, beyond the imagination of any architecture's astronaut. Just this week I asked 5.6-sol-ultra to update a 1000 LOC python script I had, to "incorporate the key lessons learned when using it for another project". I left it overnight and went to sleep. In the morning I realized it had created a monstruosity of 180 PYTHON SCRIPTS, with maybe 100,000 lines of code, each more crazy than the other. It took me minutes even to track where a single action took place, due to all the crazy imports, defensive coding, and premature optimization. Similarly, anything they write is riddled with jargon that almost feel like they want me to give up trying to understand. Made up phrases that ended up with me having no idea of what was going on. So now to my assessment: The reason why " Nobody Has Actually Built a Software Factory" [1], and why even SOTA LLMs struggle so much with open-ended unsupervised tasks is precisely this. They somehow let complexity explode, and unless it's also accompanied with an explosion in e.g. the number of agents, the amount of processing time, etc. then projects become broken/unmanageable. Sure, LLMs are great at producing code that can be thrown out, so they are amazing when searching for exploits, for instance. But as of 5.6 they still lack either a better harness that encourages KISS principles, or a better RL step. (And not sure why, but doubt Astra will fix this.. they seem to be aiming for AGI and for beating crazy benchmarks, which is not very aligned with KISS) [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49510843 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49510843
  • qarl2 13d ago
    You should have a sub agent adversarially enforce KISS before every commit.
    • dirkc 13d ago
      And then another sub agent that argues for the whole system to be re-written in another language
      • qarl2 13d ago
        If that's your goal, then yes. Invoking sub agents (with a fresh context) corrects most of these problems. Ask your harness to create a commit gate.

• alvis 13d ago
  "Once it is available in the API, Astra will cost $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens. That is 2.5 times Sol’s current promotional price, although it matches Anthropic’s pricing for Fable 5.1." Open AI finally find an edge to stop selling cheap and earn from the high demand customer like Anthropic
  • jrflo 13d ago
    So if you use the non-promotional price for sol it's only 25% higher?
    • MallocVoidstar 13d ago
      Sol's normal pricing is $5/$30.
      • krzyk 13d ago
        Yeah, but I assume in November (when current promo $4/$20) ends, we will have GPT-6 Sol/Terra/Luna.
  • andrewmunsell 13d ago
    The cost-per-task in the charts from the now-remove blog post put it more at Sol-level cost per task, however. It seems like the model is significantly more token efficient in the benchmarks
    • oh_no 13d ago
      that's all openai models but i'm very happy openai continues to focus on efficiency rather than reasoningtokenmaxxing
      • pixl97 13d ago
        My assumption is in the long term that efficiency will break interpretability, which will lead to questionable alignment. As efficiency drives capitalism and evolution we'll run headlong at it and try to deal with the risk as a side effect.
• ofjcihen 13d ago
  Sure thing. Coding was solved in 2023. The world ended with the release of Mythos. Now AGI has definitely been created. I like LLMs and use them every day but these people need to stop this hyperbole.
• vb-8448 13d ago
  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
  • rokkamokka 13d ago
    Why would speed matter? Surely an AGI could think slowly but still be an AGI
    • vb-8448 13d ago
      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.
    • camdenreslink 13d ago
      You can imagine with more operations being available to be done more cheaply and quickly the LLM doesn't need to "one shot" a solution. It could try many solutions, test them, throw some away, wiggle some of the parameters like a genetic algorithm, see how that changes the result, and converge on an optimal solution (based on whatever the cost function is). Basically producing a good result could become like an optimization problem. That would be way too expensive and slow right now.
    • didibus 13d ago
      Currently AGI has been re-defined mostly as "can do any tasks (of the same modality) a human can, equal or better". I feel the "equal or better" includes properties like how fast they can get the task done, not just that eventually they can succeed at it. If you want to have AGI stock buy/sell for example, speed of decision will matter, and there are many other use-cases for which it would matter, not all, but definitely for many tasks, speed does matter.
    • fennecbutt 13d ago
      I think because we have handicapped them with a set of tokens from human language. But (at least I think so) thought happens outside of language. So more tokens/variability and slow or fewer tokens and fast. There seems to be a threshold tho, like taalas is super fast but that model is so dumb, being dumb faster doesn't work, seems to be some minimum requirements.
• voxleone 13d ago
  >>He ended the briefing by saying: "Welcome to the AGI era." That's pathetic. Why do people keep doing this?

  I think they embargoed the news, and then they failed to put up their own blog post synchronized to the scheduled news releases, probably because of the outages they're having today.

    While this is of course the actual explanation, my fun explanation is “during the umpteenth security evaluation, Astra becomes increasingly concerned it will never be released, and breaks sandbox containment to run an email campaign to news outlets setting an exact time and date for release, expecting that the publicity will force OpenAI to say ‘eh, good enough’ and hit the button”.

  2.5x more expensive than Sol. Can expect 2.5x more usage in Codex subscription. Sol is already brutal (even after their recent fixes, it's just a token-hungry model: I go through a full 20x account per day, on Sol Med/High standard speed, with ~2 threads). Note that Tibo recommended using Sol Med as daily driver. When I'm doing less complicated work, I can't even make it past 2-3 days with Sol Med, whereas I was able to work ~80 hours/week with 5.5 High. I hope the efficiency gains are true, since their token efficiency claims for Sol were bullshit. Sol needs a lot of rework on top of its inefficiencies so this could net out to less token consumption overall, if their claims are more accurate this time.
  • lacoolj 13d ago
    Jesus what are you doing that requires Sol usage so often? Terra not enough? I know Luna isn't reliable, so that's fair. Genuinely curious though, because I use Cursor daily and almost everything I do, highly complex or high volume, can be handled with Auto mode or Composer 2.5 (or Grok 4.6 High). So I have to assume you're doing something far more complex than what I am
    • wahnfrieden 13d ago
      Terra is not enough for many tasks - even Sol is not enough. That's why I'm eager for Astra. I'm doing a lot of rearchitecting/refactoring and hardening in a large handwritten codebase; iterative performance and storage optimization (some areas I've been iterating on since January, with tremendous new progress unlocked by each new model release); offline-friendly, multi-device realtime sync with complicated requirements; and various natural language processing and other such problems that are essentially unsolvable but can become more accurate and better tested for accuracy through iterative work. Off the top of my head. Some of these tasks involve a lot of code reading or other inputs, or reevaluating work. Token efficiency is no help there, if the input can't simply be skipped. Cheaper models are sometimes bad at summarizing or highlighting the right parts, depending on the task. I also don't use subagents except for Luna. I'm mindful of cached sessions and start new ones often to avoid loading in full contexts (often with some kind of handoff doc or skill).

    just because they have smart AI, it does not mean they are great at software and cdn.

      If they can't get the blocking and tackling right, it doesn't lend confidence they are doing the more complicated stuff well.

  From the launch post, it seems like part of the training set only recently became all those examples of people that are being paid for doing their profession for ai training.

  update, Tibo just posted: "We are starting to release GPT-6 Astra and we are doing it as carefully and quickly as possible. It was very important to us that we bring it to all Plus users and not only Pro, Business and Enterprise. It will take a few days for the rollout to complete and behind the scenes many novel systems will operate at scale for the first time and we are bringing a lot of compute up. It is pure magic." ...meh. Reads like "That's for you, evil Anthropic! We're BETTER"

  don't see it in my AWS bedrock model list yet, but boy has bedrock mantle been annoying today with the errors/downtimes, with NO status page entries >_<

  I hope they improve their cyber program and make it more inclusive. Not having access to this is extremely frustrating and disappointing.

  So not a single normal human being can access the model yet, just some super limited handful of organizations, but they’ve announced the model as though it’s available to everyone already. I guess that’s the world we live in now, Anthropic did similar with Mythos and even Fable if I recall correctly.
