OpenAI launches GPT-6 Sol and Luna with a permanent 50% API price cut
The launch announcement promises better writing and a “banked reset” for Plus, Pro and Business users. One commenter argues Sol deserves more attention when benchmark scores are weighed against cost.
TLDR
A September 22 announcement says GPT-6 Sol and Luna are out, with API prices permanently reduced by 50%. It claims significant improvements across the board, including writing, and says a “banked reset” is being loaded into all Plus, Pro and Business accounts. A separate commenter argues that Opus 5.5 looks great on benchmark scores alone, but GPT-6 Sol becomes harder to ignore when cost is factored in.
