Sol 6.1 outperforms Astra at half the price on the same prompt
Using the same prompt, the author finds Sol 6.1 produces better lighting and textures than Astra while using only 3% of quota, and suspects Sol 6 was just a setup.
Wait, what just happened?! How is Sol 6.1 outperforming Astra while being 50% cheaper? i was ready to criticize OpenAI for fumbling DevDay with horrible subscriptions and a mid model drop, BUT... just fed sol 6.1 the exact same prompt i used for astra vs sonnet 5.5, and the output is crazy solid burned 3% of my quota, but lighting/textures look better than Astra lowkey feels like Sol 6 was bait just to flex the gap with 6.1
