OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, priced at $1 per 1M input tokens and $5 per 1M output tokens. The company describes it as a fast, efficient model built for computer use at scale, with detailed visual reasoning and clearer, more natural writing.

Elorian, the Palo Alto startup that raised a $55M seed at a $300M valuation, has released Glimpse as a research preview with API access at $0.60 per 1M input tokens and $3 per 1M output tokens. The model can crop, pull video frames, and run code mid-reasoning. Benchmark claims come from Elorian's own evaluations.

Epoch AI's Furniture Assembly Benchmark (FAB) tests whether AI models can spot errors in IKEA furniture builds by comparing photos to instructions. OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra now scores 80%, nearly triple the best score from ten months ago.
