Introducing GPT-6-Astra: The most intelligent and aligned model in the world

Hi @_j . Please give them a chance. Open AI is really making things better. We are actually paying far less for AI services than AI is truly worth. Everything now (including Data Centers and AI) is about making the best use of expensive and/or limited resources. We can keep costs down by more intelligent usage patterns… or we could just pay more for a valuable service. I’ve often wondered why I have to have an immediate response from ChatGPT, for instance. For many years I communicated via email, and I was used to a turnaround time between 1/2 hour and 48 hours. Inference operations can be batched and run during low-load periods. I would be willing to wait longer for a response just to keep prices low. Caveat: I am a casual, nonprofessional user.
