DevDay recap: GPT 6.1 SOL trails Opus 5.5, new $500 tier offers 25x usage
ChanceKelch · x · 2026-09-30
A recap of OpenAI's DevDay: GPT 6.1 SOL underperforms Opus 5.5; the new "dots" product is positioned against Grok Bot and Muse but botched its own demo; the $200 plan is no longer a 20x allocation while the new $500 tier offers 25x.
Commenters speculate a major launch (possibly "Astra 6.1") was pulled before the event, explaining the underwhelming lineup, and criticize the gap between weeks of hype and what was actually delivered.
