Users on X have posted complaints that OpenAI's latest flagship model, GPT-6 Astra, appears to have become less capable one week after launch. According to ChainCatcher, developers and researchers said the model now gives faster but lower-quality answers, with some comparing current results against those from release day and finding a decline. Anonymous developer synthwavedd said Astra felt noticeably worse and joked about a post-launch "lobotomy." Pranjal Paliwal, who had previously praised the model, said after reviewing code generated by Astra that "we do not have AGI, we have a performance regression." Pankaj Kumar said the symptoms included faster responses and poorer quality, and suggested OpenAI may have reduced the model's "juice value," referring to the compute used before answering. Salio and researcher Md Ismail Sojal used the same prompts to compare Astra on launch day and at present, and both obtained worse results. Theo, founder of T3Chat, said Astra may simply be less stable than Claude Fable and that users began sharing more negative examples after the initial honeymoon period ended. Some users also pointed to a similar pattern with OpenAI's previous flagship, GPT-5.6 Sol, in July. OpenAI executive Tibo Sottiaux denied intentionally weakening the model at the time, but said the company had been experimenting with "reasoning effort" settings. OpenAI has not issued a similar statement about Astra.

B.AI said on September 12 that its latest model access benefits have taken effect, including a 90% discount for high-concurrency models DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash and GLM-5.3-Flash. According to ChainCatcher, users can now call these models at 10% of the original price, while Qwen3.8-Flash, Hy3, and MiMo-V2.5 remain fully free to use. The company said the pricing update is intended to support high-throughput demand and lower the barrier for developers exploring multiple models.

California diesel prices have surged to record levels, with the statewide average gasoline price topping $8 per gallon and one San Diego gas station posting $9.99. According to Sina Finance, the shortage of fuel supply, lower refining capacity, limited pipeline capacity, and the state's high taxes and fees have intensified the crisis, while global conflicts have added pressure to energy markets. The rise in diesel prices has hit industries that rely heavily on the fuel, including trucking, moving, and construction companies. As fuel costs jump, many businesses have been forced to raise prices or accept lower profit margins, pushing up inflation and increasing the cost of goods and services for consumers.
