Rumored Tuesday Astra 6.1 still trails Opus 5.5 on taste
The author says the Astra 6.1 expected Tuesday won't match Opus 5.5's taste or low cost, though OpenAI is at least taking aesthetics seriously as the market shifts from usage alone to craftsmanship.

Looks like the Astra 6.1 that will be announced on Tuesday won't have the tastiness of Opus 5.5 😐 Baking in taste and at cheap cost is not a quick job even though OpenAI is perfectly capable of catching up. At least aesthetics is being taken seriously now. Market has shifted for sure, I still remember when only usage mattered, now models need to be artisans too.
