Astra still SOTA at spatial reasoning as GPT-6.1 models stall on 3D exploration
patience_cave · x · 2026-10-27
A Gems-vs-Moves chart from patiencecave shows GPT-6 Astra still state of the art at spatial reasoning, collecting 16 gems past 20K moves, while GPT-6.1 Sol stalls at 9 around 15K moves and Terra at 8 near 16K; GPT-6 Luna barely moves. The 6.1 models 'have mastered the tutorial but struggle to make meaningful progress afterwards' on 3D exploration.
