Free and Go users get the lighter GPT-6 Luna. Paid users get GPT-6 Sol. Enterprise access may still depend on whatever settings an admin has in place. This is for the main ChatGPT experience only, not <a href=\"https:\/\/chatgpt.en.softonic.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">ChatGPT Work<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/codex-cli.en.softonic.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Codex<\/a>. OpenAI says ChatGPT now has more than 1.2 billion weekly users.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OpenAI says some answers can now be adjusted <strong>directly in the chat<\/strong> through simple tools. Its examples include a Sunday roast planner, a visual breakdown of bike parts, and a bill splitter. If you&#8217;d rather keep things simple, plain-text responses are still there, and the visual layer can be dialed back.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s a speed claim here too. OpenAI says GPT-6 Instant starts responding <strong>44% sooner<\/strong> on average than GPT-5.6 Instant on web-search questions, because it begins answering while it\u2019s still reasoning. If you use ChatGPT often, this is the kind of update you\u2019ll probably want to try for yourself.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll see these changes in the main ChatGPT interface worldwide, OpenAI says, as it pushes toward richer chat experiences alongside <a href=\"https:\/\/google-gemini.en.softonic.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Gemini<\/a> and Anthropic Claude. The broader questions haven\u2019t gone away, though: free-tier limits, <strong>accessibility<\/strong>, privacy, security, accuracy, bias, and oversight are all still on the table.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Microsoft Copilot\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/d19bb675-3960-48e6-a0ba-14831c87fa60\/2881142981\/microsoft-copilot-icon.webp\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Microsoft Copilot<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/microsoft-copilot.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/microsoft-copilot.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenAI changed ChatGPT\u2019s main Chat tab on October 7.
