free tier of ChatGPT is getting genuinely better this week, not just more of the same model without a cap
OpenAI is moving Free and Go to GPT-5.6 Luna this week, removing text chat limits next week, and adding a Think button. files, images, voice, and image gen stay capped
Plus and Pro get an updated GPT-5.6 Sol and a slider for how long the model thinks before answering
the numbers going around, 62% fewer factual errors for Luna and 68% for Sol versus GPT-5.5 Instant, are OpenAI's own internal eval, not a third party benchmark. worth keeping in mind before repeating them as settled fact
still, a better default model for the free tier is the actual story here, the unlimited part is secondary
