What a way to indoctrinate the mass public by proclaiming that AI is ‘for all’.

Hey, if AI is for all, here‘s a suggestion: stop putting AI models up behind a paywall or subscription.

    Gonna go ahead and guess that they will still have at least one model behind some sort of paywall/subscription?

    The thing about these companies is, whenever they bring out a ‘new, innovative’ AI, they tend to just pawn off the old models for free, knowing full well that it’s shit in comparison. In other words: they charge you for the ‘good’ stuff whilst taking a shit on you. And somehow, they’ve framed it as an amazing thing… and people eat it up like cereal.

    This is for their IPO.

    Gotta hype and pump.

    ...And FYI, the spectacular drop after the IPO will be coming out of y'all's retirement accounts.

    They can't even afford their current paying user base... Aren't they months from insolvency at their burn rate?

    That can't be good for their already worrisome finances

    That’s sort of what they did? Luna seems to be mostly on par with gpt-5.4, which was SOTA half a year ago

    With one model, yes, but why not all models if they’re serious?

    They're not serious, but also, this doesn't seem like a viable economic structure. More like they're trying to pump user numbers while losing even more annually than they already are in some last-ditch push to get the last out of their investors.

    DeepSeek just released a model that is much cheaper to run and performs just as well as most GPT and Claude models. This is their reaction to try limit the damage from DeepSeek.

    OpenAI says the new GPT-5.6 Luna is also more reliable with facts. In an internal evaluation involving financial, medical and legal questions, the company found that responses containing at least one factual error were 62 per cent less common with GPT-5.6 Luna compared with GPT-5.5 Instant.

    So better than their cheapest shittiest model. Woo great accomplishment. Nothing burger of a statement there.

    Good to see them struggling to stay relevant with vaporware of features.
