"GPT Sol 6.1: Astra-level intelligence at 1/5 the price" — community reacts to pricing pace
danshipper · x · 2026-09-30
danshipper quipped that OpenAI launched "GPT Sol 6.1 — Astra-powered at 1/5 of the price," capturing the absurd pace of AI price wars where flagship-level capability gets undercut by cheaper tiers almost immediately. It echoes community discussion of near-Astra intelligence at a fifth of the cost as a counter to Sonnet 5.5.
