OpenAI announced a preview of 'Ultrafast mode,' delivering GPT-5.6 Sol at up to 14x the speed. The feature is launching first in the OpenAI API to a select group of customers, with expanded access planned as capacity grows.
In response to the update, former OpenAI policy researcher Miles Brundage quoted the tweet and remarked, 'Hugging Face is so cooked,' implying that the availability of such high-speed closed APIs will severely impact the open-source platform's ecosystem.
