If GPT-6 Astra on low reasoning already outperforms GPT-5.6 Sol on high, I’m very curious to see where GPT-6 Sol lands. Because if it keeps the same general product role as before, it could end up being the perfect middle ground for most of what I actually do: faster and cheaper than Astra, but still massively ahead of the previous generation. That’s probably the GPT-6 model I’m most curious to live with day to day.
