Three OpenAI signals look connected 1. Astra demand is so high that OpenAI had to pause new Pro x20 subscriptions. 2. GPT-6 Sol just showed up in a testing API and looks like it may be in final closed testing. 3. Biggest OpenAI leakers say Astra feels noticeably weaker today. Could OpenAI be quietly moving compute from Astra to Sol?
