GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI's most capable model for complex reasoning, software engineering, computer use, science, and professional work. Async tool calling and mid-turn steering help it run multistep agent workflows. API: model id gpt-6-astra, $10/$50 per 1M tokens (short context). Rolling out first via Trusted Access/Daybreak, then Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and the API in the coming days. First OpenAI model at the Critical cybersecurity capability threshold (advanced cyber access limited).
Fyi message from Thibault Sottiaux: "We will give one banked reset for every day you don't have access to Astra on your paid ChatGPT plan, starting today. Team is moving mountains to give access as fast as we can."
This is OpenAI's next flagship, built for the hard end to end work. Coding, computer use, science, and long agent workflows that actually stay on track.
Async tools and mid turn steering mean it can keep going while you course correct mid task. Feels less like a chat box and more like a teammate that can drive the machine.

can't wait to use astra to center divs.

The mid-turn steering alone makes this feel like an actual coworker instead of a slot machine.

When can we try it?

Hey PH community π
Excited to hunt GPT-6 Astra today.
The frontier labs keep pushing each other. We saw what Fable 5.1 did earlier this week:

It's so good at 3D modeling too π₯
Claire made a great video walkthrough:
