OpenAI introduces GPT-6 Astra for ChatGPT and Codex with expanded computer-use capabilities

9to5Mac reports that OpenAI has introduced GPT-6 Astra for ChatGPT and Codex, focusing on computer use, professional workflows, and software engineering as access begins rolling out in stages.

Signal Summary

OpenAI says GPT-6 Astra can handle multistep workflows and produce documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, while serving as its strongest software-engineering model to date. The report also says ChatGPT is nearly twice as fast at computer use with Astra, and Codex can experimentally preserve notes across context windows and search earlier windows when the current one fills.

Why It Matters

The update extends GPT-6 Astra beyond model performance claims into longer computer-use and coding workflows, but access remains staged and enterprise access is off by default. The source gives differing descriptions of the initial rollout group, so the announcement does not establish immediate availability for all users.
