i gave 5.6 sol access to my camera roll and had it extract pictures of every piece of clothing i own from my photos then, told it to find new outfits for me and render them on me with gpt-image! its kinda cool to see your entire wardrobe in a collection like this
i'd love to see interesting things people have built with 5.6 sol. i will send the person who made the coolest thing a special gift from the openai archives.

i sometimes wonder if any plane wifi company has ever tried their own wifi before
.@United: pay us $20 for the worst WiFi in the world Also @united: please enjoy starlink, the worlds best WiFi, for free!

you can use codex voice from your phone now, connecting to your computer from anywhere!! @axbehr and i got to star in this new codex ad, showing how much you can get done while working out. btw, this is powered by the new gpt-live-1

Thanks for mentioning LeRobot SO-ARM101 in @tbpn! It's a really cool project by @cdngdev that uses Astra model from @OpenAI for painting.
OpenAI's @cdngdev predicts robotics will have its own version of the 3D printing craze, with people buying cheap, open-source robot arms and connecting them to agents. "I can see a world quite soon where, similar to when everyone went and bought 3D printers and ran software, everyone's going to buy plastic, cheaper robot arms that you can clip onto a table, put stuff in front of, and plug them into agents." "The price of classic robotics equipment is thousands of dollars at the moment. This arm I'm using here is a Hugging Face SO-100 robot, which is open source, fully 3D printable, and around $200." "People can just pull up Codex and start controlling robots with it right now."

i gave astra a robot, a paint brush, and a camera then asked it to paint the golden gate bridge in real life! it figured out how to control the robot, and progressively got better throughout its attempts. the timelapse is sick

if, for some reason, you want to watch 1 hour of astra painting, you can do so on GPT-TV! openai.com/gpt-tv/
Astra is fully rolled out to Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users in Codex and ChatGPT Work. Go build! And if you need inspiration, watch Astra in action, live: openai.com/gpt-tv/

This is GPT-6 Astra. Anything you can do on a computer, Astra can do for you. Fast.

we're clearly entering a new era of robotics, and i can't wait to see what's next!

you should probably 3d-print an open source robot arm and start tinkering! the huggingface SO-101 arm i used here is a great start (needs a better gripper). there's so much you can do now. i think that so many people will have these cheap robot arms in their homes very soon!!

for the debate about art which will inevitably come up -- i feel like this is algorithmic art, similar to how pen plotter is. i don't think this will replace artists (certainly doesn't intend to), because there is a lot more to art than being painted with a brush(?)

its instructed to plan out 1 minute of actions and monitor it in the background to make adjustments as it goes after each run (and sometimes during) i'd give it a bit of feedback on how it was doing and sometimes ask it "what can you do better?" and have it update its own instructions i also gave it a few anchor points, but on future attempts it figured out and adjusted the calibration itself which was so cool to see. look at it self-calibrate and correct for the error 🤯
