LIBERO experiments show stronger reasoning in GPT-6 variants means better robot manipulation

USC researcher YuXiang Xu reports a striking ordering on one LIBERO task: GPT-6 Astra > GPT-6 Sol > GPT-6 Luna — better reasoning correlates with better manipulation. He argues that alongside world models, video generation and robot data, the field also needs stronger reasoning and multimodal models, linking OpenAI's reasoning models docs.
