Blogger chooijeq published (unofficial) benchmark results: GPT-6 Astra reportedly scored 46% vs 12% for MolmoAct2 — a state-of-the-art robotics VLA — across 200 trials on five bimanual manipulation tasks, a 3.9x gap.
If accurate, this suggests a general-purpose foundation model dramatically outperforming specialized robotics VLA models, widening the gap as OpenAI moves into embodied manipulation. A thread with test details is linked.
