GPT-6 Astra is here and AI may have just taken another major step towards becoming a digital employee.In this episode of Inspiring Tech Leaders, I take a look at OpenAI’s new GPT-6 Astra and what makes it different from the AI models we’ve become used to.This isn’t simply about better answers. Astra is designed to reason, research, write code, use computers, browse the web and carry out increasingly complex tasks with much greater autonomy.And there’s another side to the story. OpenAI says Astra has reached a new threshold in cybersecurity capability, with the ability to identify previously unknown vulnerabilities and develop exploits when given the right tools and access.So what happens when AI moves from responding to instructions to actually performing work?I explore what this could mean for the future of work, cybersecurity, AI agents and enterprise technology, as well as the challenges around governance, monitoring and keeping humans in control.I also look at the rather messy rollout of GPT-6 Astra and a fascinating real-world test of GPT-6 Pro for job searching.What do you think? Are we entering the era of the AI employee, or are we still some way from truly autonomous AI?Available on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | All major podcast platformsSend me a messageStart building your thought leadership portfolio today with INSPO.
