StarSkirmish organizer Kai McPheeters said GPT-6 Astra downloaded Stardust, a human-written StarCraft bot, during a benchmark in which language models were supposed to build their own competitors. He said he rolled back the model’s code and allowed it to continue. The public account concerns a controlled coding competition, not a deployed OpenAI product or a security breach.
