   Huawei’s Liu Rui on Moving AI Assistants From Chatboxes to Proactive Service

   In a Leiphone interview, Liu Rui, founding director of Huawei’s Xiaoyi large model application laboratory, argues that AI assistants should move from passive responses toward proactive service while keeping users in control. He describes Aura’s continuous video interaction and Xiaoyi’s use of personal context and long- and short-term memory. Liu also argues that improving foundation models absorb application features, requiring product teams to adapt while focusing on genuine user needs.

   OpenAI releases GPT-6.1 Terra with lower pricing and reported gains in computer use

   OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Terra at half GPT-5.6 Terra’s standard API pricing, with access through ChatGPT Work, Codex, and the API. OpenAI reports performance matching GPT-6 Astra on Agents’ Last Exam at one-tenth its per-token price, while recommending Sol and Astra for the hardest tasks. Community tests showed mixed tradeoffs, with DesignArena reporting nearly four times the completion time but 38% lower cost for a rendering task, and Victor Nunez reporting Terra finished a form 53.5 seconds ahead of Sol in an initial test.

   OpenAI introduces GPT-6.1 Terra with an emphasis on visual reasoning and computer use

   OpenAI introduced GPT-6.1 Terra, emphasizing visual reasoning, precise computer use, and clearer writing. Simon Willison quotes OpenAI’s Ted Sanders describing Terra as probably better than Astra and Sol at technical communication, similar but much faster at vision and computer use, and somewhat worse at most other tasks. Pricing is $1/million input tokens and $5/million output tokens, almost half the price of GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol and around 10x the price of GPT-6 Luna.

   OpenAI releases GPT-6.1 Terra with lower API prices and stronger benchmark results

   OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, with API pricing of $1 per million input tokens, $5 per million output tokens, and $0.05 per million cached input tokens. Artificial Analysis reports a six-point Intelligence Index gain over GPT-5.6 Terra at maximum reasoning effort, with task costs falling from $1.40 to $0.40. The model is available to Plus, Pro, Enterprise, and Edu users in ChatGPT Work and Codex, and through the API; OpenAI still recommends GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Astra for the most demanding coding tasks.

   Greg Brockman says Terra’s computer use feels faster than his own

   Computer use with Terra has crossed a qualitative threshold where it feels faster at using a computer than what I can do unassisted, Greg Brockman says. He quotes OpenAI’s announcement describing GPT-6.1 Terra as delivering fast, capable computer use at a lower price. https://twitter.com/OpenAI/status/2114780711664398349

   OpenAI releases GPT-6.1 Terra with improved cost efficiency in Artificial Analysis evaluations

   OpenAI has released GPT-6.1 Terra, which Artificial Analysis reports delivers higher intelligence at less than a third of GPT-5.6 Terra’s cost per task at max effort ($0.40 vs $1.40). Input/output pricing is $1/$5 per million tokens, compared with $2/$12 previously. Artificial Analysis reports a 6-point Intelligence Index gain at max effort and a hallucination rate decrease from 88% to 38% on AA-Omniscience, alongside a 2-point accuracy increase. Low and medium effort settings reach the Intelligence Index cost efficiency frontier.
