My new video is live on YouTube! I ran OpenAI Astra for a week. It is my favourite model so far. I get a more finished first draft than I did with Claude, with fewer hallucinations. It also loves burning tokens. I was hammering it for most of that week on extra-high reasoning or Ultra, with a lot of windows open. I maxed out my credits on the $200 plan, used OpenAI's resets three times, and still blew through the lot. Ultra is the same model at the same reasoning level, and it burns far more tokens. So I would start on Low with a task I can judge, check the result, and step up only when the work needs it. On the Artificial Analysis chart, Astra Low scores 46 for intelligence at $0.82 per task and GPT-5.6 Sol Max scores 47 at $1.99. Those are benchmark task costs, not anyone's bill. Which model is doing most of your work right now, and what made you pick it? https://youtu.be/T_CdGSK0AXk
