GPT 6 Astra is so much better than Fable 5.1.
Fable 5.1 is slow, expensive, and lazy. I spent the past 12 months using Claude Code as my daily driver.
I use Codex now.
Astra is fast, reliable, and computer use is a genuine game changer. It does things no other model can do.
GPT 6 Astra has completely taken over my workflow.

GPT 6 Astra is the #1# model on BridgeBench. 7.2 overall vs Fable 5.1 at 6.9.
Astra is faster, less lazy, better at back end, and more trustworthy.
Fable 5.1 still wins front end design and one shot capability.
The laziness gap is what separates them. Astra at 9.0, Fable at 6.0. Astra finishes what it starts.
Fable 5.1 is the best model in the world when it works. Astra is the best model in the world when you need it to.

I have never used Linux. Not once in my life.
Today that changes. I am trying Omarchy by DHH, a Linux distro built for AI agents and vibe coding.
Lifelong Mac user. This is a big deal for me.
Full review coming. If this is actually good for agentic workflows, it changes everything about how I build.
Does anyone have any tips?

Claude Opus 5.1 and GPT 6 Sol are both imminent.
Neither lab has an affordable model right now.
Fable 5.1 is amazing and usage dies in 30 minutes. GPT 6 Astra is amazing and I just hit my limit ONE DAY after a reset.
The frontier is incredible and completely unaffordable.
OpenAI and Anthropic need to drop models that people can actually afford to use.

Claude Opus 5 has been nerfed.
This is it losing to DeepSeek V4.1 Flash on BridgeBench.
The same model I put in A tier a month ago rendered a white screen. DeepSeek made an actual ocean sunset for 3 cents.
Claude Opus 5 cost 20x more and produced nothing.
This model is not the same model that launched in July. Anthropic has quietly degraded it, and at this point it is terrible.
We need Opus 5.1. Badly.

OpenAI just gave us a reset AND addressed every GPT 6 Astra nerfing complaint in one post.
Found the bugs, named them, fixed them, explained what happened, thanked the community.
Anthropic would have gone silent for three weeks and then gaslit you about cost efficiency.
This is why people root for OpenAI right now.

We desperately need Opus 5.1 and GPT 6 Sol.
Fable 5.1 on a $200 Max plan gives you basically nothing. Session gone in 30 minutes.
GPT 6 Astra on a $200 Pro plan is somehow worse. Four accounts, all capped by Tuesday.
The best models in the world and neither lab will let you actually use them.
Whoever ships the affordable version first wins the builders.

Grok 4.7 needs to be good.
The limits on GPT 6 Astra right now are the worst that we have experienced in the history of AI.
GROK 4.7 IS OUR ONLY HOPE.
The GPT 6 Astra limits are the worst I have ever seen.
I have 4 ChatGPT accounts and after 3 days I have used the weekly limit on all of them.
Astra is 7x more expensive than Grok 4.6 and yes, the output is substantially better.
That is the trap. The best model in the world, and you cannot use it.
Grok 4.6 has never cut me off. Not once. But it is noticeably behind on quality.
Grok 4.7 drops this week. It needs to be good. Not close. Good.
Because right now the choice is a model you cannot afford to run, or a model that cannot keep up.

Grok 4.7 may be our only hope when it comes to having a subscription with usable limits.
Having multiple $200/month subscriptions to OpenAI and Claude and it still not being enough is getting exhausting.

I can’t believe how bad the GPT 6 Astra limits in Codex are.
I have 4 accounts and all have hit their weekly limit except 1.
After tomorrow I won’t even be able to use Codex and I’m spending over $600/month.
This sucks.

I bought a $20 ChatGPT Plus subscription to test the Codex limits now that Pro subscriptions are closed.
One session with GPT 6 Astra. About 30 minutes. 8% of my WEEKLY limit left.
Not the 5 hour limit. The week. Gone in 30 minutes.
Oddly, this account showed no 5 hour limit at all. Just the weekly. Not sure if that is a change or a bug.
I had no idea Plus limits were THIS bad. $20 a month buys you one Codex session a week with the new model.
Fix this @OpenAI.

Claude Opus 5 charged 20x more than DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and delivered a white screen.
$0.59 vs $0.03. Same prompt. Opus 5 took longer and rendered a sun so blown out you cannot see the ocean. DeepSeek rendered an actual sunset for 3 cents.
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is hit or miss. I will say that. But when it hits, a Chinese flash model is outbuilding an Anthropic flagship at 1/20th the cost.
DeepSeek cooked. Opus 5 got cooked.

Same prompt run through GPT 6 Astra in Codex at all six effort levels.
Low: 7,923 tokens, 4 min, $0.63
Medium: 9,085 tokens, 5 min, $0.69
High: 19,596 tokens, 10 min, $1.21
Extra high: 34,420 tokens, 19 min, $1.95
Max: 37,241 tokens, 20 min, $2.09
Ultra: 27,465 tokens, 14 min, $1.84
Max used nearly 5x the tokens of low and produced the best result.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash just one shot Minecraft.
It built this in 11 minutes and cost less than $0.25.
Muse Spark 1.3 and Gemini 3.8 Flash completely failed on this same exact prompt.
DeepSeek cooked.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash just beat GPT 6 Astra.
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash just beat GPT 6 Astra on the BridgeBench ocean sunset test. For 3 cents.
$0.03 vs $0.59. Twenty times cheaper. Faster too. And look at the two oceans. The DeepSeek one is better.
Five days ago I said OpenAI might kill Anthropic on cost.
Now a Chinese lab is doing to OpenAI what OpenAI did to Anthropic, at 1/20th the price.
DeepSeek might have actually cooked on this one.

It’s crazy how bad Opus 5 is now compared to GPT 6 Astra.
We need a new Opus model.
The best benchmark for GPT 6 Astra is the Claude status page.
Not a single outage since GPT Astra dropped.
Grok 4.6 crashed user browsers rendering a lava lamp.
We ran it through BridgeBench's UI Bench. It wrote code that caused an infinite loop just to display a lava lamp on screen. Browsers froze. Users had to force quit.
GPT 6 Astra did it in 5 minutes for $0.63. No crashes. Actually looks like a lava lamp.
Grok 4.7 needs to be significantly better at frontend work.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash dropped and the benchmarks say it beats Opus 5 and GPT 5.6 Sol on DeepSWE.
I tested it yesterday. It does not.
This is the second Flash model in eight days to "beat" Opus 5 on DeepSWE. Gemini 3.8 Flash last week. DeepSeek today. Neither one comes close in a real codebase.
The whole point of a benchmark is to tell you how a model performs before you spend your money and your time on it. That is the entire job.
Instead the labs train to the test, post the chart, and let you find out the hard way.
Benchmarks are broken.

Codex usage is going from 70% to 0% instantly.
Multiple BridgeMind community members just got rug pulled. One was at 70%. Then zero. No warning.
Check your Codex usage and report back.
Is this everyone?
