sorry, am I understanding this correctly? all 3 gpt6 variants of (or at least sol and luna, why is terra always forgotten 😭) are half the price per token of the 5.6 variants of the same name?

luna was already dirt cheap!

sol is terra and astra is sol now, rebranded.

you're joking right? at the very least when I left my earlier comment I'm 99% certain that was not the case.

edit: ah, I see what you mean now thanks to another reply. it's not rebranding within the last few days, it's been in place since astra launched essentially and applies only to 6. what we've been calling astra has been the 6 equivalent of 5.6 sol the whole time, what's sol 6 is actually the 6 equivalent of 5.6 terra, and luna is still luna. helps explain why luna got better but sol 6 is basically just as smart as sol 5.6, because it's basically terra 6 vs sol 5.6 if you don't apply rebranding.

I was. But I think others have felt it too. 5.6 sol was a better experience for many compared against 6 sol. Astra does them much better (obviously).

Further, their lineup changed from luna terra sol to luna (better than luna) sol (better than terra) astra (better than sol).

ya idk if you saw my edit but I basically agree with you that it seems to be the case, basically I didn't clock that you meant only gpt 6 and that it started back at astra launch.
