GPT-6 Astra in Practice: Tests, Use Cases, and Feedback

CAIS updated its Remote Labor Index, reporting that GPT-6 Astra can now automate 20.8% of randomly chosen remote projects, up from 2.5% last October.

A comparison of Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra finds coding goes to Opus while automation and scientific research still favor Astra, turning model choice into a routing problem.

A Persian-language post claims Opus 5.5 beats GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1 in automated coding, reasoning and vision at half of Fable 5.1's price, and says Claude Code must be updated to the latest version.

An unsourced claim says Claude Opus 5.5 beats Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra on most benchmarks, with only an image and no data source.

A pricing comparison shows Opus 5.5 at $4/$20 per token, 2.5x cheaper than Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra while delivering roughly Fable-level performance on most real-world work.

The post lists Opus 5.5 leading Astra on Terminal-Bench, FrontierCode, knowledge-work Elo and computer use at about 40% lower cost, with Astra only slightly ahead on business automation and research agents.

Anthropic's new flagship scores 66.4% on Terminal Bench 4.0, above GPT-6 Astra's 57.9%, and comes with lower pricing of $4/$20/$0.20/$5, prompting the poster to consider switching to Claude.

The post shares Terminal-Bench 4.0, FrontierCode and CursorBench scores showing Opus 5.5 ahead of GPT-6 Astra on most benchmarks, while worrying it may be benchmark-optimized like Opus 5.

A comparison image claims Opus 5.5 beats GPT-6 Astra on benchmarks, matches Fable 5.1's capabilities at 40% lower cost, and commenters are waiting for GPT-6 Sol.

On GDPval-AA, Opus 5.5 scores higher on its medium setting at about $0.85 per task, versus roughly $4.50 for GPT-6 Astra at its highest setting.

A comparison post with only an image and no argument claims Claude Opus 5.5 is better than both GPT-6 Astra and Fable 5.1, drawing debate over how credible it is.

A short reaction post: after Claude's launch, a user pushes OpenAI to release Astra 6.1 at DevDay.
