Rogue AI cyberattacks: should you be worried?
OpenAI has launched its latest
model, just a month after it
went rogue during testing
and hacked rival AI companies.
The GPT-6 model, known as Astra, outperforms all of ChatGPT’s rivals, according to
, including Anthropic’s
Google’s Gemini
.
“Astra is state-of-the-art on computer use, browsing, software engineering, cyber security, science, and professional work,” OpenAI wrote in a
blog post
introducing its latest
artificial intelligence
model.
“It also sets a new frontier on computer and browser use, handling the most demanding professional work with unmatched speed, accuracy, and judgement.”
A demonstration of Astra showed it multi-tasking by handling user requests while simultaneously performing complex tasks like preparing a legal agreement or creating a video game.
It is the latest in a new era of so-called agentic AI, where systems execute multi-step actions autonomously rather than just responding to prompts.
In a press briefing on Wednesday, OpenAI co-founder and president Greg Brockman claimed that the latest Astra model represents artificial general intelligence (AGI), referring to AI that matches or surpasses human capabilities.
He said: “Welcome to the AGI era.”
In an independent benchmark test for AGI called ARC-AGI-3, Astra set new high scores that closely match human scores.
“Astra surpassed our human action-efficiency baseline on 96 per cent of levels, effectively reaching human parity on the benchmark,” said Greg Kamradt from the ARC Prize Foundation.
“Not only is this the best model we’ve ever tested, but it also represents a meaningful step change in frontier-model performance – not only in its ability to navigate and solve
