OpenAI demonstrates new model 'Astra' in Washington: "Multiple agents work together for long periods"

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman demoed a new model, Astra, for policymakers and regulators in Washington, D.C.

OpenAI says Astra can coordinate multiple agents over long periods to solve complex projects and tough math problems.

The model is still in internal testing, and its final release name has not been decided.

The demo signals where next-generation AI is headed and could shape future U.S. federal review and regulation.
