GPT-6 Sol and Luna

Commenters focused on OpenAI’s GPT-6 Sol and Luna release and the steep price cuts versus recent Anthropic and prior OpenAI models. Many expressed excitement about roughly 50% lower per‑token prices and called Luna’s new rates “insane” or “positively insane,” saying the cheaper cost makes Luna practical for long-running or token‑heavy tasks. Several commenters contrasted model behavior: some preferred Anthropic’s Opus 5.5 or Fable for quality and communication style, while others praised Sol 6’s improved prose and lower cost. A number of commenters suggested an orchestration pattern - using Astra or Opus as planners and Sol as the executor - while a few pointed to metrics or benchmarks where improvements looked incremental.

Opinion divides on sustainability, competition, and real‑world impact. Some commenters warned the price cuts may be short‑lived or a defensive market move and argued OpenAI is not yet profitable; others predicted third‑party providers and open models would struggle to match Luna’s economics. Practical users noted subscriptions and batch pricing can blunt API rate differences, and a few reported past token waste with GPT. There were also accusations of timing or hype surrounding launches and meta‑complaints about comment quality, leaving a clear split between enthusiasm for lower costs and skepticism about business motives and long‑term model superiority.
