About

GPT-6 Luna is OpenAI’s cost-efficient GPT-6 model designed for everyday professional work, coding, computer use, and agentic applications at scale. It brings many of the advances introduced with GPT-6 Astra to a faster and substantially lower-cost model while improving on GPT-5.6 Luna in capability and factual reliability. The model supports adjustable reasoning effort, allowing applications to spend more compute on harder tasks and less on simpler requests. GPT-6 Luna can handle software engineering, multi-step business workflows, computer interaction, and other tool-using tasks that benefit from low operating cost. Improved GPT-6 prompt caching helps long-running agents reuse more context, respond faster, and reduce the cost of repeated input. GPT-6 Luna is available in ChatGPT Work, Codex, the ChatGPT desktop app for Free and Go users, and the OpenAI API as gpt-6-luna.

About

Inkling-Small is an efficient model that offers performance comparable to Inkling at a quarter of its size. It is a Mixture-of-Experts transformer with 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters, trained on NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems. It supports native reasoning across text, images, and audio, variable thinking effort, and context windows of up to one million tokens. Users adjust reasoning effort from minimal to extra high to balance performance and compute. Improved pre-training data, post-training with on-policy distillation from Inkling, and extended agentic coding reinforcement learning helped Inkling-Small surpass its larger counterpart on reasoning and coding benchmarks. It performs well in coding and tool-use harnesses, exceeds 80% on SWE-bench Verified, and combines strong reasoning with efficient output. Its encoder-free multimodal architecture processes audio as dMel spectrograms and images as 40-by-40-pixel patches alongside text tokens.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • At $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.50 per million output tokens, I can run it across a lot of everyday coding, automation, classification, extraction, and agent steps without constantly thinking about cost. The 1.05M-token context window is almost ridiculous at this price. I can give it large repos, long docs, logs, and plenty of agent history without immediately hitting context limits. I also like that Luna still gets the full tool stack. Web search, files, code execution, shell access, computer use, MCP, and function calling are all supported, so it is not just a stripped-down cheap model.

Cons

  • The tradeoff is raw capability. For difficult architecture work, deep debugging, or long-horizon tasks where mistakes are expensive, I would still move up to GPT-6 Sol or Astra.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Inkling-Small is really interesting from a developer’s point of view because it hits a sweet spot between serious model capability and practical deployability. A 276B-parameter model with only 12B active parameters per token is exactly the kind of architecture that makes sense if you care about cost, speed, and scaling real AI workflows. I also like that it is open weights under Apache 2.0. That makes it way more appealing for developers who want to fine-tune, inspect, customize, or build on top of the model without being completely locked into a closed API. The multimodal support is a big plus too. Being able to work with text, images, and audio inputs gives Inkling-Small a lot of room for developer tools, coding agents, support bots, document workflows, and internal automation.

Cons

  • The main downside is that “small” here is still not tiny. Even with only 12B active parameters, this is still a large open model that will require real infrastructure if you want to host it yourself. I would also want to test it deeply before making it the backbone of a production coding agent. The model card and early coverage look promising, but real developer workflows expose problems that benchmarks do not always catch: messy repos, flaky tests, weird dependencies, tool failures, and long multi-step tasks.
