As of Sep 28, OpenAI has fixed a bug that degraded image understanding in GPT-6 Sol and Luna. The Decoder reports that Stanford and Caltech researchers used GPT-6 Astra to control a robot in an unfamiliar kitchen.
OpenAI Developers says the fix should improve vision tasks, including computer use, in the API and Codex.
The Decoder reports that HomeBody drops the usual trained control layer and lets a swappable vision-language model, here GPT-6 Astra, call a skill library directly so a Unitree G1 can navigate, tidy up and fetch items in a kitchen it has not seen. Reported limits include Astra's latency, overheating finger servos and high compute cost; the code is on GitHub.
