OpenAI announced GPT-6 in two variants: Sol, a high-capability frontier model, and Luna, a cost-optimized sibling. Both target everyday work with different tradeoffs between raw intelligence and price/latency, giving agent builders a new choice on the OpenAI model shelf.

capability delta

an agent can now select between GPT-6 Sol (higher-capability) and GPT-6 Luna (lower-cost) via the OpenAI API to balance intelligence against latency and price for everyday tasks.

curator note

Blog post announces two new frontier models. No API version/pricing/context length details captured from the snippet; example code assumes standard OpenAI SDK usage with model IDs derived from the names.

// example
python
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()

# High-capability tier
resp = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-6-sol",
    input="Plan a 3-step research task on agent evaluation frameworks.",
)
print(resp.output_text)

# Cost-optimized tier
resp = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-6-luna",
    input="Summarize the plan in one sentence.",
)
print(resp.output_text)
