    GPT-6 Astra seems to have decoded a message from WW II, which
    has not been decoded so far and was encrypted using the ADFGVX
    method, by correctly guessing the encryption word.

    There's still a relatively famous list of 50 unsolved ciphers.

    The only puzzling thing about these posts is that you didn't see fit
    to provide a link to a reliable source, and perhaps quote a short
    passage from it demonstrating its relevance.
