Summary

The poster shares their experience using the gpt-6.1-sol/medium model, noting that it feels very different in personality from the earlier 5.6-sol and astra models. It is now much easier to steer, flexible and intelligent, gets things done right on the first attempt, rarely over-engineers, and can engage in high-level system architecture discussions with humans — and since it's so cheap, they strongly recommend it.

I spent the afternoon hammering away at gpt-6.1-sol/medium and found this model's personality is genuinely different from the previous 5.6-sol and astra — it's become very steerable, flexible and smart, gets things right on the first try, and almost never meddles unnecessarily or over-engineers. It can also engage with humans at a high level, co-thinking through system architecture and solutions together. It's honestly a pleasure to work with (and given how dirt cheap it is, I'm totally recommending it~✌️ https://t.co/nKYOxyPeEp

Spent the afternoon hammering on gpt-6.1-sol/medium and this model’s personality really is different from the earlier 5.6-sol and astra — it’s much more steerable, flexible and smart, able to get things right on the first try. It also almost never meddles or over-engineers, and it can hold high-level conversations with you to co-think through system architecture and solutions. Honestly, it’s a pleasure to work with — and considering how dirt cheap it is, I’m all in on it. ✌️
