Krug's Astra plays Montezuma's Revenge, an old AGI marker

Joey Krug posted a gameplay video of OpenAI's Astra model playing Atari's Montezuma's Revenge, framed as ticking an old Metaculus market that had listed the game as a final AGI criterion.

Krug hedged more than the framing did. He wrote that "I'm not sure if this quite fulfills the fine print of the market, as it frequently pa…" the game to think between moves, but called the run "close enough to think it's basically AGI level computer use." He capped the demo at level 3 to hold down token spend, noting later levels are of similar difficulty.

The Montezuma clip lands next to a companion Krug run in which Astra plays Valve's Portal on its own. According to Tom's Hardware, that Portal run used 3,336 tool calls, elapsed 23 hours and 43 minutes end-to-end, and cost $571.18 in API charges, with the game paused while the model analyzed screenshots between actions.

Two of the people we follow reposted the clip the day it went up.
