Users Suspect GPT-6-Sol Was Quietly Nerfed and Swapped for Cheaper Terra

A Reddit user speculates that gpt-5.6-sol and gpt-6-sol have recently been nerfed, noting the intelligence gap between astra and sol has widened noticeably. The theory: OpenAI quietly renamed sol to the cheaper terra, making "gpt-6-sol" a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing rebrand. Unverified, but part of a recurring pattern of user complaints about silent model changes.
