• GPT-6 Astra signals the arrival of AGI, not by benchmarks, but by its ability to autonomously define methods, acquire tools, and persistently solve complex, open-ended problems without explicit instructions, ushering in a “post-prompt world.”
• Demonstrated by Ethan Mollick’s experiment where Astra built a personal knowledge system from raw data, these “long-running super agents” can handle ongoing areas of concern, adapt (“work around corners”), and multiply human ambition (e.g., Playco building 10 game ideas).
• The immediate challenge shifts from an “intelligence curve” to a “trust curve,” requiring us to ensure agents are 100% reliable for critical decisions (time, money, relationships) and to redefine management roles towards driving value through human-agent teams with clear ownership.
