With GPT‑6 Astra and GPT‑6.1 Sol, Codex, and Daybreak for cybersecurity, this AI lab builds agents that focus for days and improve with use. 10,000 Agents running concurrently 36–48 Hours per autonomous research session 97% Reduction in backtest time with Codex Trillion OpenAI tokens in a single day Every company has its own workflows, tools, edge cases, and definitions of success. Third Moment Research believes the best agents should be really good at that specific work and should improve their capabilities the more they’re used. The company is building a self-improving AI system around that idea, using OpenAI’s latest models to understand agent behavior, identify recurring weaknesses, and automatically create thousands of synthetic scenarios around those problems. The team uses those scenarios to improve agents, repeating the process as new issues emerge. Codex, GPT‑6 Astra, GPT‑6 Sol, and GPT‑6.1 Sol support the system’s research and computational work, enabling Third Moment to run 10,000 agents at once on investigations lasting 36-48 hours. The company also uses Daybreak to test the security of the environments where agents work. …
