Leaked GPT-6 Astra demo shows 8-day task runs, 1600 sub-agents, and 3D modeling
op7418 · x · 2026-09-04
- GPT-6 Astra is reportedly out but not yet available, pending new systems to let all paying users (including Plus) devote 100% of quota to it; reset credits can be stockpiled.
- Demos highlight extreme long-horizon capability: one run built a ROM for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra over 8 days, invoking 1,600+ sub-agents.
- Strong 3D modeling/rendering: can rebuild an image from scratch in Blender with full environments, useful for Unreal 5/Unity game work — seen as a blow to 3D and video generation models.
- Pricing: 2.5x of "5.6", 90% cache-read discount; same tasks use 1/5 the tokens of Claude Opus 5, and match Claude Fable 5's score at under half its cost.
