GPT-6 Sol Underperforms Predecessor, Leaving a Gap in the Model Lineup
Jarr11 · reddit · 2026-09-24
A Reddit user found GPT-6 Sol noticeably less capable and thorough than GPT-5.6 Sol—closer to 5.6-Terra in quality but priced at the higher tier. With 6-Astra overkill and too compute-hungry for most tasks, they argue the GPT-6 lineup is missing a mid-tier model, and ask how to recover the 5.6-Sol experience.
