7 Tips That Turn ChatGPT 6 Astra Into AGI
One creator's seven-tip playbook for turning ChatGPT 6 Astra's computer-use and reasoning upgrades into real workflow gains.
September 7thThe argument in one line.
OpenAI's Dev Day announcements all point at one strategy, pull every workflow inside ChatGPT itself, while GPT-6.1 Sol's five-day turnaround shows Anthropic's Opus 5.5 forced a genuine scramble.
Read if. Skip if.
READ IF YOU ARE…
- You use ChatGPT daily and want to know whether Dots, Spaces, or the $500 plan are actually worth switching to.
- You build AI-powered apps and need to understand the new plugin extension system for distribution.
- You're deciding between GPT-6.1 Sol and Claude's Opus 5.5 for your primary model.
SKIP IF…
- You don't use ChatGPT or OpenAI's ecosystem, this entire video is product-specific.
- You want an independently tested benchmark comparison, this is a first-impressions reaction, not a test.
The full version, fast.
OpenAI's Dev Day introduced Dots, a unified agent that replaces chat threads with one persistent assistant carrying full ChatGPT memory and cross-device tool access, and ChatGPT Spaces, multiplayer editable AI documents aimed at Notion and Google Docs. GPT-6.1 Sol arrived just five days after GPT-6 Sol, a reaction to Anthropic's Opus 5.5, offering near-flagship intelligence for a fraction of the price. A new $500 Pro plan landed the same day OpenAI halved $200-plan usage, adding 8x 'ultra fast' inference. Smaller launches included Codex CLI voice mode and cloud tasks, plugin extensions letting outside apps run inside ChatGPT, and sign-in with ChatGPT, which lets a user's subscription inference power third-party tools.

Lines worth screenshotting.
- OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Sol just five days after GPT-6 Sol, the fastest back-to-back model turnaround the presenter has seen from any major AI lab.
- The same day OpenAI cut ChatGPT Pro $200-plan usage in half, it introduced a $500 plan offering 25x usage against the old plan's 20x, a real gain of roughly 20% for more than double the price.
- The $500 ChatGPT tier unlocks 'ultra fast' mode in GPT-6 Astra, 8x normal inference speed that reportedly burns about 6% of a session's usage allotment.
- Dots is OpenAI's unified agent front door: instead of managing separate chat threads, one persistent agent carries full context across every thread, plugin, and memory.
- Dots ships with a user's entire ChatGPT memory history built in from day one, while a newer competing agent starts with zero context about the user.
- ChatGPT Spaces turns static AI-generated documents into multiplayer, editable artifacts that multiple people, and their own individual agents, can co-edit in real time.
- OpenAI's new plugin extensions let outside apps run full experiences inside ChatGPT, a second attempt at an in-chat app store after an earlier version failed to gain traction.
- Sign in with ChatGPT lets a user's own subscription inference power third-party apps like Devin, letting people trial paid tools without buying a separate subscription.
- Sign-in-with-ChatGPT is the opposite stance from Anthropic, which blocked outside tools from using Claude subscription inference when OpenClaw launched.
- OpenAI's Codex CLI now supports voice mode, previously exclusive to the desktop app, plus the ability to send local tasks to run in the cloud.
- By the presenter's own estimate, roughly 75% of the ~40 announcements OpenAI makes in a typical year fail to stick within a month.
- Every Dev Day attendee received a free Modretro Chromatic, a backlit handheld that can be plugged into a computer to vibe-code games onto its own cartridge.
What OpenAI's Dev Day Actually Changes For You
WHAT TO LEARN
OpenAI's Dev Day announcements all point at pulling every workflow inside ChatGPT, and the $500 plan controversy shows how aggressively OpenAI will price power users to fund it.
02Dots is so good
- A single persistent agent with full context beats juggling dozens of separate chat threads, because you stop having to remember where each idea lives.
- Built-in memory is a real switching cost, an agent that already knows your history has an advantage over one you have to re-onboard from zero.
- Feature parity with a competitor doesn't matter if the underlying platform access, desktop, mobile, cloud, and local, is wider than theirs.
03ChatGPT Spaces
- AI-generated documents becoming multiplayer and editable in place removes the redo-from-scratch cost that made static one-off artifacts less useful for teams.
- Letting collaborators call in each other's individual agents inside a shared document is a genuinely new pattern, not just chat plus a shared doc.
- Replacing an established habit like Notion or Google Docs is a distribution problem more than a feature problem, and that's why most challengers to entrenched tools fail.
04GPT-6.1 Sol
- A five-day model turnaround is a signal, not routine, shipping that fast after a competitor's leap usually means the original release wasn't good enough to sit on.
- Near-flagship intelligence at a fraction of the price is the lever worth watching, not the raw benchmark number by itself.
- Benchmarks announced without independent testing are provisional, treat a lab's own 'looking really nice' claim as a preview, not a verdict.
05The $500 plan
- Cutting a lower tier's usage the same day a pricier tier launches is worth reading skeptically, the headline multiplier can undersell the real percentage change.
- A feature exclusive to the top tier, here 8x inference speed, is what actually justifies premium pricing, not raw usage caps.
- Paying for extra speed only makes sense when a task is genuinely time-boxed or blocking, most everyday work doesn't need 8x an already fast model.
06CLI improvements
- Voice input moving from a desktop-only feature into the CLI matters most if you already manage multiple agents at once, it closes a modality gap between tools.
- Free open-source orchestration tools are worth tracking even if you don't switch platforms, they show where workflows are actually heading.
- Offloading a task to run in the cloud instead of locally is a small feature with an outsized effect, it decouples finishing work from keeping a machine on.
07Extensions
- An app-store model inside a chat interface has failed before at the same company, betting on it working this time needs more evidence than 'agents are popular now'.
- If you maintain any app or SaaS product, a distribution channel inside a billion-user chat surface is worth evaluating even before adoption numbers are proven out.
- Discovery inside a plugin store isn't guaranteed just because the store exists, most app stores reward whoever is already winning attention elsewhere.
08More announcements
- Letting your own subscription inference power third-party apps is a meaningfully more consumer-friendly stance than a platform that blocks outside tools from using its inference.
- A platform's access policy is itself a competitive signal worth tracking, restrictive versus permissive rules shape which surrounding tools survive.
- Not every Dev Day announcement will matter in a month, roughly 75% of a typical year's announcements don't stick, so wait for real adoption before rebuilding a workflow around something brand-new.

metaphor
I just got back from OpenAI Dev Day. It was incredible. So many amazing announcements.
I've been using a lot of those amazing announcements for a few weeks now. I was very lucky to have early access to a lot of them. I'm going to cover all the news.
I'm going to cover everything announced, give you my initial reaction, tell you what it's been like using dots for a while now, tell you what it's been like using space, different things like that, and show you everything you need to get excited about and how to take advantage of... all this amazing technology and boost your productivity and all that.
It was awesome. If you ever get the chance to go to Dev Day, you should do it. It's a very, very fun experience.
Let's just jump straight into it. Let's go into all the announcements, starting with the biggest one, which is OpenAI Dots. Dots is OpenAI's competitor to Grokbot and now more recently, Metamuses, their own spin on it.
And I actually like it a lot. I've been using it for a little bit now. I was lucky enough to have early access and I got it.
a ton done with it. You can see right here. Here's my dot Bobby.
It is a great tool. What is Dots? Well, it is their AI agent, right?
It is your . Before when using chat GPT, you can see over on left here, you create threads for everything. You want to respond to email, you create a thread.
You want to build a game, you create a thread. You want to merge a PR, you create another thread. What that leads to is a lot of thread management.
You end up with thousands of threads if you do a lot of work, and sometimes it's very hard to manage. Now you have Dots. This is your meta...
The Muse, Grokbot, that is your front door to everything in chat GPT. Now, instead of managing a bunch of threads, you have your agent, your dot, do the management for you. I need to send an email.
I don't create a new thread to send an email. I go to my dot and say, hey, respond to that email. Then at the same time, I'm building a game and I think of a new feature.
I then follow up with that same dot and say, hey. build a feature in this. And because it has context around all your threads, because it has context on all your plugins, memories, data, and all that, it's able to manage all of it for you.
This, in my opinion, makes the chat GPT experience a lot nicer because instead of having to manage all these ideas and all these things, having to remember where the threads are, pin this, which projects that in, this, that, projects, threads, you don't have to think about it anymore. It's all managed through your dot. So if you are a chat GPT power user, This is excellent.
This is great for you. But what's the difference between DOTS and the more popular bots right now, Metamuse as well as Grockbot? I'm going to be honest with you, not much.
So then why would you switch? Why would you put all that effort to switch your agents to DOTs? Well, there's a few reasons why.
Number one is memories. Your DOT, right out of the box, right when you start it, has all of your chat GPT memories. So if you're anything like me, you've been using chat GPT for years, you have tons of conversations, all that context, all those conversations, your DOT knows it right away.
If you started using Metamuse over the last few weeks, it knows literally... zilch about you. You had to tell it a ton about yourself and still probably doesn't have your entire context.
Dot, on the other hand, has everything right out of the box. There's no onboarding. There's nothing you need to do.
It just knows everything about you. That's pretty big. The second moat it has over other bots is the fact that it's in the best agent harness on planet Earth, which is the ChatGBT desktop app.
The ChatGBT desktop app is incredible. It has the best tools AI agents can have between the voice mode, between all the plugins they have already, between something I'm about to show you in a second, ChatGBT space. It is the best agent harness.
It's the best to use. It's the best to get work done. Your dot has access to all of those tools.
So you can go to your dot, say, hey, spin up a codex thread for this, spin up a thread for this, do this in the cloud, do this on my local computer, do this on my iPad, do this on my cell phone, whatever you want. It goes across all those. It can do whatever it needs in all those.
It has the best tool set of any AI agent out there. It can work on the cloud very much like Metamuse and Grokbot can do, but it also can work locally. Any computer that has ChatGPT on any device, iPhone, anything, your agent, your dot has access to.
So that is a big moat and a big differentiator as well. Functionally, feature -wise, is it any different than anything else out there? No, honestly not.
We need just basically Metamuse, but with Chad GPT memories as well as all the tools from Codex. But I still really have enjoyed using it. Who is this for?
Who should switch to DOTS? Well, if you're a Chad GPT power user, you should 100 % switch over. It is fantastic.
Or if you're any sort of AI power user at all, I think you should switch as well because of all its power user tools. I think Metamuse is more for the make me a reservation crowd out there, which is honestly probably a way bigger crowd than the people who use like Codex. But still, I think it's more for kind of the more casual AI user that uses AI to make reservations and buy things off Amazon.
Grokbot, I still think it's a fantastic tool. If you like having multiple personas, then you probably should stick. with Grokbot because it's only one dot inside ChaiGBT, which might be a positive for you, it might be a negative for you.
But if you like to have that huge team of AI agents, Grokbot is really good for that. Which brings us to the next big announcement I've been using for a little bit now, and that is ChatGPT Space. This is an interesting one.
This is actually a major, major swing by OpenAI. What Space is is basically artifacts on steroids. So every AI agent tool out there, every cloud code, everything has what's called artifacts.
You're chatting, it makes docs for you, it makes slideshows, it makes games, whatever, and it shows up in your chat. That's called an artifact. But this takes it to the next level.
Let me show you an example. So this is a space my dot Bobby made for me this morning. I woke up.
It saw I was going to Dev Day. I didn't ask for this. It just made it.
And it made me this entire itinerary with all the times, everywhere I need to be, everything I need to do to get going. Pretty cool. And also a big feature of Dot, just this proactive stuff.
Really, really cool. But here's where it goes to the next level over artifacts, over what you'd see in really any other AI tool. This is one interactive, right?
So I can click in here and any of these artifacts, I'm going to start typing. I can say, hey, let's actually visualize my day. So I may want to come in here and visualize my calendar for Dev Day.
And I can hit enter. Now it's going to add a generated chart in my space. of my entire calendar.
Couldn't do this type editing before in different artifacts. I can take it in another level. If I want to just chat with this page, if I want to chat with this space, I can say, hey, at the bottom, add in all the notes and announcements from Dev Day.
I hit enter. Now I'm chatting back and forth with this space and adding to it, which is really cool. But taking this even further, and this is where it gets really, really interesting, especially if you have a team or anything like that.
This is completely multiplayer. So you can go in here. I'll minimize this also for the record.
Look at that. That's sick. It put my entire calendar from actually my Google calendar in here and then added in the schedule from Dev Day.
You saw that happen in real time. That's really sick. Anyway, it's multiplayer.
So you can click share. You can share this to other people and they all can work on this with you. And not only that, you can actually tap in each other's dots to work on this too.
So if I want to go in here, I want to say at Bobby and say, add in the weather. And I hit enter on that. Bobby, my dot will now go in and actually add in the weather to this space.
So you're collaborative, right? It's fully multiplayer, which is kind of the big trend in AI now making things multiplayer. So multiple people and agents can work together.
And now you all can collaborate on these different documents and artifacts. They're coming after Google docs. They're coming after notion and they're putting this all in chat GPT and they're super powering it with AI, making it all multiplayer, which is incredible.
I think what they're really trying to do is make it so. all your work, everything you have to do on your computer, you can just do it straight in ChatGPT. I think they're trying to find every workflow people do where they have to click out of ChatGPT and having them just put it in here.
So you just spend your entire day in ChatGPT. That's really amazing. I really like this.
Here's my concern. I mean, that's a tall task, getting people out of Notion, getting people out of Google Docs and all that. You're asking people to completely change their workflows, which for me, based on me using this, I think is worth it because it's so sick because of all the class.
collaboration but for a lot of people who are like stuck in those tools have been using those tools for years it's gonna be a tall task but we'll see i think this might stick every year open ai makes like announces like 40 different things 75 of them don't really stick and by a month later they're gone i hope this is one of those things that sticks i really like using this Which brings us to the next announcement, which is a brand new model from OpenAI, GPT 6 .1 Sol.
This is kind of mind -blowing. The biggest reason is GPT 6 Sol dropped, I think, like five days ago now. I don't think there's ever been this quick of a turnaround time for a new model from really any company.
It's obvious why they did this, right? The reason being is... Opus 5 .5 comes out, I think radically changes the entire industry.
I think shocks basically every AI company out there with how big of a massive leap it is in basically every single way, from intelligence to speed to cost. It dominates every other model in all three of those categories. Less than 24 hours after that comes out, OpenAI releases GPT -6 Sol.
It is a disappointment compared to Opus 5 .5. I don't think OpenAI saw Opus 5 .5. coming and they had to quickly scramble because for the first time in a while there was really no reason to be using GPT models and so they had to scramble and in the last five days I wouldn't be surprised if OpenAI employees did not do much sleeping the last week.
They come out with GPT -6 -1 Sol. Now I'll be honest, I was able to early test a lot of the things I'm showing you here in this video. This was not one of them.
I did not get my hands on GPT -6 -1 Sol, but the benchmarks are looking really nice. It's looking like it is basically Astra 6 level, if not even a little bit better for an absolute fraction of the price. as 5 .5 was to Fable.
Fable level intelligence, but significantly faster and significantly cheaper. This looks like that version for Astra. Basically what people are expecting out of six soul.
Let's look at what 6 .1 soul is. Cost per task is absolutely dirt cheap. And it's looking like the speeds are amazing.
Now, how does it compare to Opus 5 .5? Can't tell you. I need to do some testing.
I will probably release a video on this in the next couple of days. So make sure to subscribe and turn on notifications. I'm going to do dedicated videos to every single thing and announcement I'm showing you in this video over the next few days.
I kind of want to just show you and go over high -level announcements, also kind of flex. I went to Dev Day, not a big deal. And then we will do the dedicated, super in -depth deep dive over the next few days.
Which brings us to the next big announcement, and this was a controversial one to say the least. There is a new plan in ChadGBT, a $500 plan. Now, this is especially controversial because earlier in the day, they made a not so warm announcement that they were cutting the usage of the ChaiGBT $200 plan in half.
Bingo, bingo, cut in half. You get half the usage you normally get. So they make that announcement, which quite frankly pisses everyone off.
And then they come back and say, oh, by the way, you can now pay us more money for a little bit more. So you get 25x the usage. The $200 plan previously was 20x.
really only getting 20 % more usage for like over double the price. The other big benefit here though is ultra fast. So you get ultra fast, which is their new mode.
You previously got fast mode. Now you get ultra fast mode. What is ultra fast mode?
Well, it's only available in six Astra. And if you go to six Astra and you click speed, when you're in the $500 plan, you click ultra fast. You now get eight X speeds for six X the price.
That's right. Now it's eight times fast. faster than your normal inference.
I tested it earlier. I built an entire game using ultra fast. I think it burns like 6 % of my usage, my $500 plan usage, but it built it spectacularly fast.
It built like a full in -depth unity game in like. two minutes it was unbelievably fast now the issue everyone's gonna you know kind of mention the comments but 500 is absolutely absurd no one can afford that you're right that is very very expensive this is for select people this isn't for everyone i will say this six astra it's a fast model as it is you don't need the 8x speeds i was blown away by the 8x speeds you don't need it but there you go very controversial announcement 500 plant You get ultra fast.
You get 25x usage if you are a power user. I think it's a must -have if you're like a super power user. I think you got to do it.
There you go. Let me know down below. Is that crazy?
You sign up for the $500 plan. You're sticking with something cheaper. You're just switching to Claude.
I don't know. Let me know down below. Which brings us to our next announcement, which is a vastly improved Kodak CLI.
So this is really cool. I'm glad they did this. I'm actually using the CLI more and more lately.
Reason being is I use Herder, which you can see here. If you want a dedicated Herder video, by the way, let me know down below as well. Herder basically allows you to manage a whole bunch of agents very, very easily all at the same time.
But you have to do in the CLI. I use the Codex CLI a ton. They vastly improved it.
It looks a lot nicer. And best of all, you can now do voice. They have voice mode in the CLI.
For those who watch my videos, I talk about voice. mode a ton. I think it is mind blowing.
I think it is amazing. It was only available in desktop app though. Now I can do it in this CLI, which is so, so sick.
So CLI visually improved and now you can do voice mode in it. I highly recommend checking out Herder. It's a free open source tool that lets you just manage a ton of agents at the same time.
I use it a ton and now I can use voice mode in it, which is amazing. Another big addition to Codex today was Codex in the cloud. Now inside Codex, you can spin up tasks and immediately send it to the cloud, which is great if you're one of those people that have your laptop open at all times just so you can get tasks done.
All you need to do when you're spinning up a new thread in ChatGPT is you click the little thing here that says local. And now you can switch to cloud. And what this will do is whatever task you give it, it will now immediately send it to the cloud, send it to server.
So I can lock this computer, shut it down. Doesn't matter. You can be assured your task will get done because it's happening somewhere else.
That's really cool. Really nice little quality of life addition. Here is a big one that I think will be huge if you are an app builder, and that is the plugin extensions.
They are doubling down on plugins, which they should be doing, and I think the popularity of agents is kind of forcing this, but it is the ability to build full experiences inside of ChatGPT for your application. It allows you to basically bring all the functionality of your app straight into ChatGPT where most people are doing their work.
And this is big for distribution, right? There's billions of people that use ChatGPT. So if you have an app, you're building some sort of application, you can create a plugin so that those billions of users can now get access to your app inside of ChatGPT.
Again, we talked about this earlier. It really seems like OpenAI is trying to make it so you never have to leave ChatGPT. This is basically the app's...
store of Chad GPT. This is actually something OpenAI has attempted many times before. They actually announced at the last Dev Day I was at a Chad GPT app store.
It never panned out. People didn't really use it. So they're trying it again.
They're giving it another shot. I think this is the winner though. I think this is the one that catches on.
Reason being is people are getting into plugins now between Muse, Dots, all of them. Everyone's trying to build connectors and plugins so that their agents can access it. This seems like best version of it.
This seems like the one agents will want to use and click around in. It's almost like a space for your app. I think we now live in a world where if you have an app, like I have my app Creator Buddy, I'm building out Henry Intelligent Machines.
I think I'm going to need to build a plugin so people can get access to it in ChatGPT. It just opens up your distribution. It makes it so way more people can get access to your app.
There's going to be so much discovery that goes on with this plugin store where people will be able to go in and discover your app and start using it. You got to be building your own plugins here if you have your own app. Here is one that was awesome.
This is a really good announcement. consumer announcement, which you don't always see a ton from these AI companies, and that is sign in with chat GPT. What does that mean?
You can now sign into other apps with chat GPT, but this isn't just OAuth. This actually allows you to use your chat GPT plan in other applications. So you remember when like OpenClaw dropped back in like February or January and Anthropic immediately went, no, hell no, you can't use our subscriptions with that.
You can't use it. We don't know what that tool is. That pissed a lot of people off.
Well, OpenAI is going the opposite route. They're saying, not only can you use our tool with OpenClaw and Hermes, you actually can use it with whatever the hell application you want. So now you can take tools like Devin, connect to a chat GPT, and now you can use your inference from your subscription plan in other tools.
So they want you using your subscription for absolutely everything. And this is pretty cool because this basically allows you to demo or trial other AI tools out there. Instead of paying for Devin subscription plan, you just sign in with your tool and you can use your inference for Devin.
If you decide you like it, you can buy their subscription, get more usage out of it. Very, very pro consumer allows you to use your subscription in more places, use your inference and other tools, or instead of having to get more and more subscriptions, you just use your one chat GPT. subscription.
That's really sick. It's taking the opposite approach of what Anthropic's been doing in the past. They're going pro -consumer, which I love.
Really amazing work by OpenAir in this one. There were many other announcements here, including private intelligence, basically a way for you to talk to chat GPT without it storing anything, any of your data, anything you're talking about at all. There was also an adventure mode they talked about very briefly, which is really cool.
Basically a very easy way to build games, have the AI test your games. I think gaming is going to be a massive, massive, massive application AI.
It's a huge industry that is ripe for disruption. I think a lot of these companies, Anthropic, OpenAI will be coming out way more gaming tools. So it's awesome to see them releasing that.
I'm going to be sending out guides on all of this through my free newsletter. It's the number one AI newsletter on planet Earth. Link down below for that.
It's called Ship It Weekly. Sign up for that news. Over 40 ,000 people subscribe.
That link down below. Subscribe and turn on notifications. Leave a like if you learned anything at all.
By the way, they gave everyone this. This is so sick. This is a chromatic, a mod retro chromatic.
I don't know if you're familiar, but it's basically like a Game Boy Color, but like a super powered one with like a backlit screen and everything. But what's cool is you can plug this into your computer and you can vibe code games on it. And it comes with this like OpenAI cartridge where you plug it in and it puts whatever games you build on the cartridge.
So you can like vibe code like Game Boy games and play it on your handheld. 13 -year -old me is going nuts over this. So this was really cool.
Shout out to OpenAI for giving everyone one of these. Pretty amazing. I think Palmer Lucky made it.
So really, really cool. If you ever get, again, you ever get the chance to go to Dev Day, I highly recommend it. It's a really cool experience.
You meet amazing people. Could the food be a little bit better? Yeah, it could be a little bit better.
Do I want to eat macaroni and cheese and salad for lunch? No, I don't want to eat macaroni and cheese and salad for lunch. But I can't complain.
Everything else was amazing. Everyone got a free mod retro. You get to meet Sam Altman.
You get to do all these other cool things. So really amazing. Hope this was helpful.
