At OpenAI’s DevDay event on Tuesday, the company showed off GPT-6.1 Sol, a mere week after it launched GPT-6 Sol. OpenAI says the new model delivers nearly the same level of intelligence as GPT-6 Astra for agentic coding, computer use, and professional work, at one-fifth the standard input and output token prices.

Notably, the company is not launching GPT-6.1 Astra, as was originally expected. The Wall Street Journal reported this week that OpenAI scrapped the release over safety concerns raised by researchers during internal testing after the model showed higher levels of deception and a tendency to move forward with tasks without asking the user for permission.
