GPT‑6 ASTRA ON ROBOTIC MANIPULATION

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

Researchers gave GPT-6 Astra control of YAM arms under an Inspect Robots agent policy and gave it two tasks: it had to pick up a red block from a table and place it inside a bowl, and pick up a round blue puzzle piece by the knob at its center and place it into the matching circular groove in the board. Astra placed the block in 19 of 20 trials in the bowl task. It completed the puzzle insertion two times in 20. Astra completes the bowl task far more often than Fable at about half the cost per run.
