AI brief
OpenAI released GPT-6 Astra, a new frontier model with state-of-the-art computer use and coding, priced 2.5x higher per token but cheaper per task, and less monitorable.
Why it matters: It is described as OpenAI's biggest LLM launch, and the pricing and monitorability changes affect how developers and safety observers use the model.
