A lot of people have been telling me they’re seeing noticeable improvements in both quality and latency with GPT-6 Astra and GPT-5.6 Sol. I’m still looking into it, but it really does seem like something changed. Both models suddenly feel much better “out of nowhere.” I’ve also started seeing reports and examples of much more advanced interactive interfaces being generated directly inside ChatGPT, like in the video below. I still don’t know if these changes are connected, but something is clearly moving behind the scenes.
