Fake "GPT-6.1 Sol Ultrafast" rollout announcement spreads, model names don't exist

patience_cave · x · 2026-10-09

A post styled as an official announcement claims "GPT-6.1 Sol Ultrafast" is rolling out to the API, Codex, and ChatGPT Work, promising 8x faster speeds than Sol Standard.

The model names (GPT-6.1 Sol, Astra) don't correspond to any real OpenAI products — treat this as a meme or fabricated announcement, not real release news.
