GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI’s new AI model. It can help with writing and research, build software, and carry out tasks in apps.

We think it is worth trying. Just don’t expect every task to feel like a big upgrade.

The 3D demos are getting plenty of attention. In the post below, a creator shows animated trains built with Astra. It has picked up more than 10,000 likes and 190 replies.

Writing results are less clear. The team behind the test below ranked Astra below Sol at matching their own writing style. That is one team’s test, not a verdict on all writing.

At Every, a publication about AI and work, the experience was different: its CEO mistook Astra’s draft for a colleague’s writing.

There is evidence of progress outside 3D, too. Independent AI testing company Artificial Analysis found Astra completed more difficult computer tasks than Sol.

Reading more is easy. Remembering it is harder. Recall turns articles, videos and PDFs into quizzes and brings questions back over time. Useful when you are learning a subject and want more than a folder of forgotten links.

The free plan has limits. AI can make mistakes, so check quiz answers against the original material.
