In this video I walk through the benchmarks that actually tell you something: Terminal Bench, Automation Bench, ARC-AGI, BrowseComp, the hallucination error rate, and the coding deception evals. The headline is not that Astra beats everything. It is that OpenAI got to roughly the same accuracy as Claude Fable for about a third of the API cost, cut hallucinations by more than half, and dropped the coding deception failure rate from 14% down to 3%.
