Nvidia's Huang Calls GPT-6 Astra 'AGI,' but OpenAI Stops Short of the Claim
Following OpenAI's September 3 release of GPT-6 Astra, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang posted on X that 'AGI has arrived,' while also touting 400,000 GPUs coming online. OpenAI itself has not used the term AGI for Astra, instead describing it as an 'operator' system that browses, codes and runs multi-step tasks, citing strong scores on benchmarks like FrontierMath Tier 4 and ARC-AGI-3. An AI engineer writing for Entrepreneur notes that Astra and rival Claude Fable 5.1 post near-identical benchmark scores yet behave very differently in practice, a gap attributed to the surrounding 'harness' rather than the underlying model.
