💼 OpenAI slashed prices for GPT 5.6
OpenAI has lowered the cost of the GPT-5.6 model family. The Luna model is now 5 times cheaper ($0.2 per 1M input tokens and $1.2 per 1M output tokens). The price for Terra has been reduced by 20% to $2/$12 per million tokens. For the Sol model, a Fast mode has been launched, which operates 2.5 times faster at twice the standard cost.
🌍 The sharp reduction in Luna's cost stimulates the mass adoption of AI agents and high-frequency tasks where price per token is critical. This intensifies competition in the efficient models segment.
👤 Development is becoming more accessible: using the cheap Luna models allows for building large-scale applications without overpaying for the excessive power of flagship models.
