OpenAI releases Sol, Terra, and Luna models with a 90% discount on cached input tokens

Correction - the top model is still $30 per 1M token

But they have a Sonnet-like version that is 2x lower

Still about 50% of Fable!

can someone explain why the differential pricing for input and cached tokens?

@bindureddy did they define "soon"?

@bindureddy We all know that model will be nowhere near fable model intelligence, common.

@bindureddy No, Sol is not 2x lower than 5.5

@bindureddy Would love to see how more expensive this is in comparison to frontier OS models.

@tinkerersanky Please check my thread

@deliprao Probably this

@bindureddy Hype price until we get access to it. Until then just marketing.

@bindureddy How its 1/4th? Its actually half of Mythos!

@bindureddy where does it say it will become generally available??

@bindureddy I think I saw it uses more tokens so not exactly 2x cheaper.

@bindureddy the cost curve on frontier models is moving faster than most roadmaps anticipated. Sol pricing is going to force some uncomfortable conversations at competing labs

@bindureddy real game changer is not just

intelligence

it’s making that intelligence affordable

and accessible

@bindureddy I wouldn't bet on "soon." OpenAI tied broader access to finishing a deal with the government, not to a date. Mythos 5 and Fable 5 have been stuck in that exact spot for two weeks now, no restoration yet.

@bindureddy "Generally available soon" that's a long shot, when they said "weeks". Looking forward to Chinese releases in the meantime.

@bindureddy OpenAI really said price war is on😂 Fable level smarts at 25% the cost is actually wild.

@bindureddy We will see

@bindureddy 5.6 Terra won't be Sonnet-like; it will be more powerful than Opus 4.8, about 50% of Fable.

Luna will be Opus-like and 5x cheaper

@bindureddy Great improvement
