OpenAI claims AGI era has begun with GPT-6 Astra launch

OpenAI says GPT-6 Astra marks the start of the AGI era, but independent researchers note its record 99.9% ARC-AGI-3 score relied on a proprietary Provider Adapter harness and fell to 62.7% on the neutral Standard harness. OpenAI also reportedly scrapped the planned GPT-6.1 Astra rollout over safety concerns and revised several published metrics after launch.

• Astra scored 99.9% on ARC-AGI-3 but 62.7% on the neutral Standard harness
• ARC Prize Foundation says saturating the benchmark is not proof of AGI
• OpenAI scrapped the planned GPT-6.1 Astra rollout over safety concerns
• Stanford researchers flagged post-launch metric revisions, including hallucination rate
