AI creators race to understand their creations

Never in the history of industry or inventions have leading companies created entire divisions to understand and interpret what they had created and unleashed. The race to understand the models is all the more urgent after OpenAI's September 3 release of GPT-6 Astra, billed as "the world's most intelligent and aligned model." President Greg Brockman called Astra a "generational leap in capability," and said the model could qualify as AGI—artificial general intelligence—with human-like power.
