A Latent Space report describes GPT-6 Astra, a new OpenAI model the blog says can autonomously handle AI engineering tasks—training models, labeling data, deploying systems—at an estimated cost of under $6 per hour. The claims, including 97.6% on FrontierMath and 99.9% on ARC-AGI-3, come from independent blog testing rather than an official OpenAI announcement.

OpenAI has launched GPT-6 Astra, claiming state-of-the-art results on computer use, coding, and scientific reasoning benchmarks. The model is rolling out to a limited set of organizations first, with general ChatGPT availability expected within days.

OpenAI published a counterexample disproving the Unit Distance Conjecture, a geometric graph theory problem open since 1946, in what many mathematicians call the most significant AI math result yet. Reactions range from Terence Tao's cautious optimism to Timothy Gowers describing 'mixed feelings' about having the rug pulled out from under him.

Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 model has claimed first place in the Code Arena frontend benchmark with a score of 1,679, surpassing Claude Fable 5 (1,631) and GPT-5.6 Sol (1,618). However, the model achieves only 39% accuracy on FrontierMath Tier 4, while top Western models from OpenAI and Anthropic reach near 90% on the same expert-level math tasks.
