OpenAI adjusts its strategy, using general AI models for robot control

OpenAI disbanded its independent robotics research team, integrating researchers into the core research team and application departments, aiming to accelerate the development of general-purpose robots. OpenAI stated that general AI models like GPT-6Astra have demonstrated capabilities in robotic applications.

NVIDIA's research shows that agents equipped with Astra achieved a success rate of 74.8% in simulated tests. OpenAI plans to conduct the first public demonstration of humanoid robots in 2027.
