A post on X by user DanDr1s reports that two new GPT-6 model IDs have appeared in Codex, OpenAI's development platform. The IDs are gpt-6-astra and gpt-6-astra-aeon. The poster speculates that gpt-6-astra-aeon likely represents a higher-effort, long-horizon variant, possibly built for autonomous multi-agent work. This suggests ongoing development of next-generation AI models by OpenAI, with potential applications in complex, autonomous systems. The appearance of these IDs indicates internal testing or preparation for future releases, though no official announcement has been made by OpenAI.
