Everyone is buzzing about the news that GPT‑6 Astra has officially been launched by OpenAI.
Astra scored 99,9% on ARC-AGI-3 and 100% on ExploitBench, 98% on FrontierMath Tier 4, and has helped solve many long-standing problems in mathematics. In short, Astra has surpassed the basic human action effectiveness level at 96%, and overall is no different from an ordinary person. Sounds familiar, right, that's right, this is the legendary AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), everyone.
Many people believe that Astra's 99.9% score was actually achieved thanks to OpenAI using its own specially optimized framework (responses API harness). When run with the test organizers' neutral framework, Astra only scores around 62% - 62.7%. Astra's Intelligence Index on Artificial Analysis is only 61 points, ranking alongside Grok 4.6 or GPT-5.6 Sol and even behind Opus 5 . In general, scores only reflect part of the picture and shouldn't be trusted absolutely based on advertising like that.
Once again the information above may make some people feel pressured and that it's pointless to have to constantly learn new frameworks or tools, because they risk becoming obsolete after just a few months. Many programmers are deeply concerned about their career prospects amid the rapid-fire release of new models that are becoming increasingly refined. Not to mention if they fall into the hands of "bad actors" then what will happen to humanity 😩
