If it's not clear what's happened:
The launch was scheduled for 11am Pacific time.
The press embargo broke at 11am, and we saw a flurry of press articles by Axios, TechCrunch et al.
The model has appeared on the ChatGPT API.
But the official blog post is not out yet after nearly an hour.
Apparently the article was posted then quickly taken down, hence there are snippets of information coming out.
The outage this morning probably threw a wrench in the launch

But it hasn't.
"gpt-6-astra" has been staged on the OpenAI API https://x.com/synthwavedd/status/2095184148981842161
The OpenAI Responses API now returns a 404 Not Found for "gpt-6-astra", where garbage/actually non-existent slugs return 400s - a 404 is also returned for 5.6 Cyber, which we know exists.
Maybe it was postponed due to the outage today?
