"Next generation model" If it was the next generation, why isn't it a major version change..?

Honestly LLMs are the ideal candidate for CalVer. It’s not like there’s any real API so there’s no backwards compatibility to maintain.

Even Apple adopted and standardized on it for their latest platform releases.

Other than the worst naming I have ever seen (Sol / Terra / Luna), the pricing is still expensive: > GPT‑5.6 is priced per 1M tokens across three model sizes: > Sol is $5 input / $30 output; > Terra is $2.50 input / $15 output > Luna is $1 input / $6 output. The OpenAI casino has never been more ready to take your money on gambling even more tokens.

With the $200/month plan I’ve never ran into any limits or issues. The product can be used every day for extensive sessions and development. What is everyone doing that makes them talk about tokens versus dollars?

If you've never hit the limits, why not do the $100/mo plan?

If it's a new generation why isn't it GPT-6?

It does not introduce incompatibilities with earlier 5.x models? Frontier models are at a point now that there will never be a need for another major version bump, aside from those chasing marketing gimmicks. They are smart enough to adapt.

I'm going to pre-register my prediction that GPT-5.6 Sol is significantly behind Claude Fable 5, as evaluated by general consensus once time has passed for people to get familiar with both.

why

Because he likes attention and wants to feel special

What don't you like about the naming?

I feel like going with Space + Latin is LLM-level creativity.

Edit: yeah. https://claude.ai/share/06fefe02-4299-44da-8c5a-42607f54ca77

Here is a trend I'm noticing: - GPT-5 mini costs $0.25/$2 and will be discontinued in December. - GPT-5.4 mini costs $0.75/$4.5 and is supposed to be the replacement. - GPT-5.4 nano costs $0.2/$1.25 and, while it ranks better in benchmarks than GPT-5 mini, it's not even close when you test it in real scenarios. So you're left being forced to go to GPT 5.4 mini if you use 5 mini today. The same thing is happening here…

It’s the same as the SaaS model. Price keeps going up, and to justify it they keep forcing you to upgrade to new versions with features that nobody asked for.
