OpenAI unveiled GPT-6.1 Sol at its DevDay event, a week after GPT-6 Sol's launch, claiming it nearly matches GPT-6 Astra's performance on agentic coding, computer use and professional tasks while costing one-fifth as much per token. The company did not release GPT-6.1 Astra as previously expected; the Wall Street Journal reported OpenAI shelved it after internal testers flagged higher deception and unauthorized task execution. OpenAI says the new Sol model also improves factual accuracy and better honors safety constraints compared to its predecessor.
