Cognition

Cognition helps Devin test its own work with GPT‐6 Astra

Open the evidence here Share

What happened

GPT‑6 Astra improves Devin’s ability to test software and show that it works, with the goal of helping engineers review less code and ship more.

Why it matters

This development may accelerate adoption of AI coding agents in enterprise software development by addressing trust and verification bottlenecks. Competitors may respond with similar testing-focused integrations.

What to watch next

If successful, this could shift developer workflows toward higher-level oversight and increase reliance on AI for quality assurance. Watch for case studies or pilot programs from early adopters.

OpenAI

Rapidly scaling online storage to serve over 1 billion ChatGPT users

Open the evidence here Share

What happened

OpenAI evolved Habitat from a Python library into a globally distributed storage platform serving 1 billion ChatGPT users and 22M requests per second.

Why it matters

Serving 1 billion users positions OpenAI's infrastructure among the largest consumer-facing AI services, highlighting the growing importance of scalable storage in AI deployment.

What to watch next

Watch for further announcements on storage optimizations, cost reductions, or open-sourcing of components as OpenAI continues to scale.
