It mined a diamond while he slept

Wuyang Zhou asked GPT-6 Astra to mine a diamond in Minecraft through computer use, then went to sleep. The diamond was in the inventory in the morning.

Computer use is usually demonstrated as a tidy task: book a table, fill a form, stop. Wuyang Zhou gave GPT-6 Astra a bad, long, slightly stupid goal — mine a diamond in Minecraft — and then left.

The result is not a speedrun. It is that the agent was still there in the morning, and the diamond was in the inventory. Overnight is the part that matters. Most agent demos are supervised. This one had to survive boredom, wrong turns and nobody watching.

A diamond is a perfect receipt. You cannot argue with the item. Either the agent played until the game gave it one, or it didn't.
