OpenAI believes the release of GPT-6 Astra may be viewed in the future as the starting point of AGI.
OpenAI President Greg Brockman noted that AGI lacks a unified definition, but many people will view the current phase as a major milestone.
The article suggests that the world may have entered the AGI era about a year ago, even if it has not been clearly recognized.
Investor Vinod Khosla defines AGI as when AI can perform 80% of tasks in 80% of economically valuable professions.
Although this threshold has not been reached, the author asserts that businesses need to prepare immediately to adapt to AI.
Entrepreneur Bill Nguyen stated that the AGI era actually began months ago.
According to him, the standout feature of GPT-6 Astra is its computer-controlling capability, combined with generating images, video, and autonomously finding the tools needed to complete tasks.
Bill Nguyen also assessed that Anthropic Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra can independently source resources for work, rather than just answering questions.
He believes that the leaders of OpenAI and Anthropic are still underestimating the true capabilities of these models.
Bill Nguyen noted that the AGI turning point began with Anthropic Opus 4.5 in November of the previous year, and was subsequently driven by the tool-use capabilities of AI models.
According to him, the current limitation no longer lies in model capabilities, but in the deployment ambition of individuals and businesses.
He forecasts that AI will increasingly be granted more autonomy to interact with applications, accounts, and working environments.
📌 AGI is no longer a distant goal but is gradually becoming a reality through models like GPT-6 Astra and Anthropic Fable 5.1. The major difference is that AI can now autonomously find tools, access resources, and execute complex sequences of tasks on behalf of humans. Although there is no unified definition of AGI, many experts believe the current barrier lies primarily in the speed of enterprise deployment rather than the capabilities of the AI itself.
