OpenAI is making ChatGPT Dots more capable, but the interesting part isn’t just that they’re getting access to more powerful AI models. It’s that they’ll be able to choose the right model for whatever you’re asking, so you won’t have to figure that out yourself.
Thibault Sottiaux, who works on Codex and ChatGPT at OpenAI, shared on X that the company is expanding the lineup of models powering Dots. This includes GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Terra, with more expected to arrive down the road. According to Sottiaux, Terra brings faster performance and a more pleasant personality, while also helping OpenAI make Dots available to more people.
