GPT-6 Astra and Claude Fable 5.1 show mixed results in robot control tasks

A new evaluation by Robocurve has pitted OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra against Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.1 in robot control tasks. GPT-6 Astra demonstrated superior performance on a simple block-picking task, completing it with a 95% success rate and at a lower cost and faster speed compared to Claude Fable 5.1. However, on a more complex puzzle-piece insertion task, both models performed identically, achieving only a 10% success rate. This suggests that while current LLMs are improving in physical manipulation, complex spatial reasoning remains a significant challenge. AI

IMPACT LLMs show improving capabilities in physical robotics, but complex spatial reasoning remains a bottleneck for AGI.
