OpenAI launches GPT-6 in ChatGPT with interactive 'Intelligent UI'

OpenAI is rolling out GPT-6 to ChatGPT, with answers that can include charts, diagrams, forms and tappable buttons instead of plain text. Paying users get GPT-6 Sol and free users get GPT-6 Luna. OpenAI says the model can respond while still thinking, cutting wait times by 44 percent.

Why it matters: Training the model to decide when to show interactive visuals rather than text moves the chatbot toward being an application surface, not just a text box. That puts it in more direct competition with app and dashboard builders, and raises the bar for rivals' chat interfaces. The tiered Sol/Luna split also shows frontier access being segmented by plan.
