  • Sep 22, 2026Release OpenAI releases GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna OpenAI released GPT-6 Sol (gpt-6-sol) and GPT-6 Luna (gpt-6-luna), reasoning models that take text and images and return text through the Responses and Chat Completions APIs. Standard prices per 1M tokens for prompts of up to 272K input tokens: Sol $2 input, $0.20 cached input, $10 output; Luna $0.10, $0.01 and $0.50.
  • Sep 22, 2026Capability OpenAI improves prompt caching for GPT-6 OpenAI says GPT-6 models hit the prompt cache more often by default, and discounts now apply to shared prefixes reused within 30 minutes. New tools include a caching dashboard, a diagnostics tool that explains cache misses, explicit cache breakpoints, and changing reasoning effort mid-conversation without losing the cache.
