OpenAI upgrades GPT-6 Astra Pro in ChatGPT with faster responses and parallel agents
Overview
OpenAI says its GPT-6 Astra Pro model in ChatGPT now responds faster and uses plugins and tools better.
The update adds parallel multi-agent task execution, in which several agents work on different parts of one task at the same time. Users can follow each agent's progress and open completed tasks to review them.
OpenAI says the parallel agents are available now to Pro users in the Chat tab. A second report from Testing Catalog repeats these details and does not add new conditions.
