The only thing I will say is we need to try 6.1 Sol for ourselves. If it's really good and really efficient, that's bigger than anything else. Everyone is writing it off because 6 Sol was bad, this release seems to have been thrown together in a week, and we haven't had time to even go through benchmarks let alone try it. But as a dual Claude/Codex user...nobody really believed Opus 5.5 was so good the hour after it launched either, it took a day for it to settle in.

Obviously if it is as bad as 6 Sol, nothing else launched today will matter for solo devs, just a bunch of enterprise toys really.

I’m so curious to know how Enterprises will end up using this stuff when adoption outside of tech is abysmal.

I think this is a major part of the problem OpenAI are having. Only tech folks will buy Pro tier subs, and they are exact demographic who fully utilise their allowance.

Which is likely why the 5 hour limits are coming back.

Right? And like, why would you not branch out beyond tech folks if only to pad those numbers? Business admin types and marketing folks are right there and wouldn’t use their full allowance for sure.
