Astra is a new step in LLMs I think.

I'm so used to having to comb through LLM word vomit and then combatting the sycophancy by giving it all possible opinions on the same prompt.

Astra seems to be "confident" and also is able to produce way more information dense output.

To believe that models of this sort will remain OpenAIs forever is naive given that the tricks like pre-pre-training on graph searching and looping layers are publicly known.

Hopefully Astra stops the benchmaxxing word vomit trend
