GPT-6 Astra is here.

We hope it will begin to enable a new generation of entrepreneurship, scientific discovery, and building.

We believe it is the best model in the world for computer use, professional work, science, coding, cybersecurity, and more.

It took us some extra time to ensure that we could meet the safety and alignment standards required for this capability level, but we think you’ll find it worth the wait.

It scores 98% on FrontierMath Tier 4, 99.9% on ARC-AGI 3, and 100% on ExploitBench.

Everyone is open sourcing everything right now.

Why? AI made software a commodity.

So you don't sell the software anymore, you sell everything around it: the hosting, the support, the enterprise tier, the trust, and the community.

Open source is the default now!

When you truly work for yourself, you won’t have hobbies, you won’t have weekends, and you won’t have vacations, but you won’t have work either.

You’re here because an unbroken chain of your ancestors, from tadpoles to monkeys to now, replicated.

Don’t be the first one to miss the branch.

There will be 3 types of people in the future:

The Purists - reject AI and become new-age hippies

The Automatons - outsource every decision and become machines

The New Renaissance Man - maintains humanity and leverages tech to do what used to be impossible

Gentle reminder:

Block out time away from the screen.

Force yourself if you have to.

Read a book for once. Hit the coffee shop. Do anything that gives your mind space to process all of the noise you've accumulated.

You will feel the immense difference in mental clarity.

Underrated life advice: A good life is built by simply doing uncomfortable things sooner. The delayed conversation gets harder. The ignored problem gets bigger. The small repair gets more expensive. Peace is never found through avoidance. It’s found through direct early action.

One pattern I find useful for working with LLMs is a nice long ramble session. Sometimes the LLM needs more bits to understand what you're trying to achieve, but you're too lazy to type them. In these cases I like to lean back, switch to /voice and just ramble for like 10 minutes, total mess, anything goes, full stream of consciousness. Sometimes I declare it up top, something like "switching to speech recognition sorry for any typos...". Sometimes I turn it into a small interview of a few turns. But I find that the LLMs are somehow very good at reconstructing long incoherent rambles and often their echo of your own tangle of thoughts comes out quite a bit cleaner than what you started with. The result is that you improve the mind meld and have to correct things less from that point on.

Skills that have nothing to do with money but are worth dedicating an immense amount of practice to:

- Charisma
- Metacognition
- Critical thinking
- Sitting with discomfort
- Articulating what you believe and why
- Changing your beliefs when presented with new information

Almost nobody actually practices these and it shows.

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

If you don't wake up excited and go to bed tired, drop everything and think of what your future will look like if you keep repeating the same day for the rest of your life. Sit with that discomfort until a new direction appears.

Go all in. Because half in is actually all out. Even 90% gets you nowhere. There’s magic in that last little bit. New levels unlocked. Simply because so few have the courage to go there.
