Early GPT-6 Astra Access Demos: Model Plays Pinball, Builds Sites, Games Play Themselves
johnlindquist · x · 2026-09-04
Developer johnlindquist shares first-hand experiments letting GPT-6 Astra loose with real tools: the model autonomously operates pinball, builds websites, handles fonts and music, and even gets games to play themselves — including a pottery game he had casually requested earlier.
The demos suggest Astra can sustain long-horizon tasks while calling external tools, offering an early-access look at its agentic behavior.
