OpenAI has launched GPT-6 in two tiers — Sol at $2 per million input tokens and the budget Luna model at just $0.10 — as Anthropic simultaneously releases cheaper competing models, triggering an industry-wide price war. The moves come as OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are also in separate talks about a shared AI safety collaboration framework, adding an unusual cooperative subplot to the competitive bloodbath.
