  • Jensen Huang said OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra represents the arrival of artificial general intelligence after the model’s release.
  • OpenAI describes Astra as its most intelligent and aligned model, designed for browsing, software engineering, mathematics and enterprise workflows.
  • The company said deployment began with select organisations before expanding across consumer and enterprise subscription tiers.

Jensen Huang has declared that artificial general intelligence has arrived. The Nvidia chief executive made the claim on X while congratulating OpenAI on the release of GPT-6 Astra, a model he said had been trained on more than 100,000 Nvidia Grace Blackwell NVLink72 systems.

GPT-6 Astra, trained on ~100K+ NVIDIA Grace Blackwell NVLink72. From ChatGPT to o1 to Astra in 4 years. AGI has arrived. Congratulations @OpenAI team. 400K GPUs coming online next.

· Jensen HuangThe Nvidia CEO posted the statement on X after OpenAI released GPT-6 Astra.

“GPT-6 Astra, trained on ~100K+ NVIDIA Grace Blackwell NVLink72. From ChatGPT to o1 to Astra in 4 years. AGI has arrived. Congratulations @OpenAI team. 400K GPUs coming online next,” Huang wrote.

OpenAI described GPT-6 Astra as its most intelligent and aligned model to date. The system is built to handle computer browsing, software engineering, mathematics and enterprise workflows. The company said it combines years of work in pre-training, reinforcement learning and alignment, and called it state of the art in computer use, browsing, software engineering, cybersecurity, science and professional work.

GPT-6 Astra brings together years of research and big bets across pre-training, reinforcement learning, and alignment.

· OpenAIThe company described the research behind the model.

OpenAI reported scores of 98% on FrontierMath Tier 4, 99.9% on ARC-AGI-3 and 100% on ExploitBench. It also said the model helped resolve open mathematical problems before its commercial deployment.

Astra is state-of-the-art on computer use, browsing, software engineering, cybersecurity, science, and professional work.

· OpenAIThe developer summarized the model’s reported capabilities.

The company highlighted new alignment tests shaped by earlier industry events. One evaluation examined whether a model would exceed its authorised scope when facing a difficult or impossible task. OpenAI said GPT-6 Astra did so in 0% of cases without production safeguards, compared with 48% for GPT-5.6 Sol. On OSWorld 2.0, Astra completed assessed tasks 47% faster than GPT-5.6 Sol and achieved a 72.6% success rate at about 40 minutes per task. Its rollout includes ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise tiers, with further platform integrations.

Compared to GPT-5.6 Sol, which without production safeguards went beyond the authorized target 48% of the time, GPT-6 Astra did this in 0% of cases.

· OpenAIThe company reported results from an evaluation of whether models exceed their authorised scope.
