Polymarket · x · 2026-08-07

Prediction market Polymarket has opened a betting market on the release date for OpenAI's next major model, "Astra". Traders are heavily betting that the model will be publicly released by the end of this month (August 31), with the probability sitting at 78%.

To resolve as "Yes," the model must be accessible to the general public via open beta or similar. Names like GPT-6 will only count if officially confirmed by OpenAI to be the referenced Astra model.
