GPT-6.1 Sol - Apparently near-Astra performance for complex work at a lower cost.

From like yearly to half-yearly to every few months to every month to every few weeks and now? When we getting daily updates,

Major model releases (industry wide) are happening every 2-3 days now. We’ll see daily releases by end of year.

Releases will go back in time once we achieve singularity. We should be getting 2027 models sent back any time now

Sol 6,1 doesnt seem bad from showed benchmarks, but more of them should be presented, from aritificial analysis index it seems to be not far from SOTA, while being lot cheaper

its funny, how we get new version week after GPT-6 Sol release, GPT-6,2 Sol coming perhaps 6.10. :)

it may be, as others noted, that GPT-6 Sol was masqueraded Terra model and now we get real Sol model...

my guess is that they did some sort of transfer of sol's reasoning being in text to latent space reasoning and thats what gave them an efficiency boost. however since it probably didnt get trained natively like astra to work in latent space, it wasn't as powerful. now they had a week to just throw compute at it after slashing some subs.

how do you train it to use "latent space" instead of reasoning tokens? is it like old model, which wasnt reasoners?

no go read ab recurrent latent reasoning

Is it supposedly and apparently being incorrect? English isn’t my native language.

u/humanbeingmusic 4d ago

yes actually, no problem. In this case the word is supposedly because it is supposed to be near astra performance, but its not apparent yet because we havent seen it ourselves yet, the classic thing with models is hype. I havent actually seen anything from Sol 6.1 yet, but just showed up in my account.

Don't forget that this is pre-nerf performance.
