OpenAI has characterized Astra as its most potent and aligned system, excelling in areas such as computer usage, software engineering, cybersecurity, science, and professional work. Huang highlighted that Astra was trained using more than 100,000 Nvidia Grace Blackwell NVLink72 systems, highlighting the immense computing power needed to create cutting-edge AI models.
