Imagine your manager handing you the company keys and saying: just work, I'll check in every couple of days.
That's exactly what happened at Perplexity, except the 'employee' here is an AI model called GPT-6 Astra.
Astra now writes official communications, modifies production code, and monitors live systems while they're running.
What's wild isn't that it does the work. Other models have tried that before.
What's wild is that Perplexity now checks in far less frequently than they ever did with previous models.
This isn't just another benchmark win. It's the first real signal that a major tech company is treating AI like a trusted senior engineer, not an assistant needing constant supervision.
Here's the question that should keep you up tonight: if models need less monitoring, who exactly are we going to be monitoring next?
