- 7Hacker News·9/6/2026researchGPT-6 Astra Outperforms Fable on Robot Arm Task
A comparative benchmark on YAM robot arms found OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra completed a block-to-bowl manipulation task far more often than Claude Fable 5 and 5.1, while also using less time and lower estimated cost per run. On a more difficult puzzle-piece insertion task, Astra matched Fable 5.1's low success rate and stalled at the same final stage, suggesting stronger performance on one manipulation task but not a broader breakthrough in dexterous control.
