Artificial Analysis launches AA-Robotics v0.1: coding agents drive a real robot arm, GPT-6 Astra leads at 69.4
Artificial Analysis released AA-Robotics v0.1 on 2026-10-14, a research preview in which frontier models running inside coding-agent harnesses (Codex, Claude Code, Antigravity) control a 6-axis robot arm over an HTTP API across eight tabletop tasks. GPT-6 Astra scores 69.4, ahead of GPT-6.1 Sol (64.6), Gemini 4 Argon (55.3), Claude Opus 5.5 (48.8) and Claude Fable 5.1 (46.3). Models take about 30 minutes per task versus roughly 20 seconds for a human.
