Description
SummaryInkling is a general-purpose multimodal autoregressive transformer model from Thinking Machines Lab, supporting text, image, and audio inputs with text output. It is designed for a wide range of applications, including reasoning, coding, multilingual understanding, and multimodal interaction. Optimized for agentic workflows, tool use, coding assistants, chatbots, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and instruction following, Inkling provides a versatile foundation for production AI systems requiring robust language and multimodal capabilities.GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI's flagship model for demanding end-to-end professional work, designed for advanced analysis, software engineering, deep research, scientific tasks, and document creation. It is particularly strong in long-horizon agentic workflows, including tasks that require sustained reasoning, tool orchestration, and computer and browser use, making it well suited for complex autonomous workflows and production-grade knowledge work.
