OpenAI releases GPT-6 Sol and Luna at half the price

“Now GPT 6 Luna is even cheaper, and more intelligent, there is no going back...”

“GPT-6 Luna at $0.10/Mio input tokens and $0.50/Mio output is positively insane.”

“it will be exciting to try the new one.”

“What a day! I couldn't really use the last Luna for much (wasn't smart enough) or Astra (too expensive). So this release is really exciting.”

“Pricing is insane, can have Luna going after a goal for 10 days and not run into maxing out the limits.”

“Busy week!”

“AI models are starting to look like every other technology where the product keeps getting better while prices shrink.”

“OpenAI is going for the killshot on Anthropic. GPT Sol 6 is 50% of the price of its comp Opus 5.5, at nearly identical performance.”

“I made this game with Luna Max in one shot in about 4 hours”

“GPT-6 Sol and Luna are out. Not only are they a very significant improvement across the board, but also in writing and general "you know when you try it" quality.”

“GPT-6 Sol、ガチでコスパ強いことが判明www”

“GPT-6 Sol and Luna build on the advances behind GPT-6 Astra, bringing much of its strengths into faster and more affordable models to support work at scale.”

“This is the most blatantly astroturfed thread I have ever seen on Hacker News.”

“The smartest individuals among humans are becoming replaceable. Intelligence has become a product you can quantify and buy with electricity. That feels awful.”

“I wouldn't be surprised if humans cracked it then OpenAI "bought" the solution and work to claim it was GPT's doing”

“They are trying to generate hype before the IPO so that they can cash in before the bubble bursts”

“So we have entered an age where an army of know-nothings direct models to old forgotten tasks so they can get 15 minutes of un-deserved attention?”

“The bullshit machinery is going full blast lately, the correct title: researcher uses Astra to decipher a message nobody really bothered or cared to decrypt.”

“this cutting-edge offering costs a mere $5-$6 per answer, with a whopping 54% all-pass rate”

“Any AI chatbot that uses a first-person pronoun such as "I" or "me" is LYING to you. It is not a person, of any kind. It has been programmed to LIE to you, by the people who developed it, and”

“Now that all the safety issues are fixed, we can continue to move forward!”

““Instead of OpenAI being prosecuted for creating malware that hacked another company,press releases, news outlets,media personalities,& lawmakers refer to “rogue models”as if they acted on their own.Instead of researchers being questioned about their companies’ habit of plagiarizing academics’ work””

“i didn't change my mind about OpenAI's refusal. the subscription renewed, and Xiaomi and Anthropic both restricted ordinary speech today. avoiding one company's model didn't get me out of the others' rules. still pissed.”

“AI is better when it relies more on humans, and gets worse the more AI there is.”

“Have they solved GPT5.6 SOL's propensity to over-engineer and over-complicate?”

“Without the published conversation, train-of-thought and intermediate output and knowing what Astra did this is nothing but unfounded claims.”

“I'm personally not sure if it can come with original thinking and techniques to solve completely novel problems. For that, some imagination and thinking outside the box are required, and I doubt the current architecture can do any of this.”

“If Astra is just handing off tasks to another computer, then I'm not sure how much credit it deserves.”

“There is nothing special about astra doing something here I blantly threw request to decode the messaage in qwen 3.7.”

“OpenAI solving all these math/etc problems (reportedly 100 coming) is both impressive and insanely unimpressive.”

“The correct title: Researcher brakes one specific stubborn historic enigma message with good help from Astra. Stubborn for a long time because the message used a completely different key from the rest of that day's traffic. Everyone assumed it shared”

“it seems like it's only small incremental improvement over 5.6 Sol, but with a massive cost reduction.”

“It's asking a lot to trust they can or will maintain this new pricing.”

“I don't recall OAI retiring a model so early lol. Must be very similar in arch.”

“AI has done so much for the blind community, from image (and increasingly video) description to mods for video games like Final Fantasy 1 through 6 Pixel remaster, I have a ton to be grateful for.”

“Price wars are now happening at almost every layer of the AI software stack. For now it seems only the chip vendors have moats”
