THE FULL RECORD · Full timeline

17 events retained by the site.

This object’s records stay together across live coverage, the watch pool and history. Every event links to its source record; corroboration and material changes have separate labels.

Dates use Beijing time. Open an event for its full record, original source and evidence. Corroboration adds support without counting as a material change.

GPT-5.6 SolEvents retained by the site
  1. Material changeThe Hacker News submission linked to the model page under the title ‘GPT-5.6 Sol Pricing Cut by 50% on OpenRouter.’ That created a price lead requiring maker-source verification.
  2. Material changeThe official Hacker News API still returned 633 points and 448 comments. Nothing changed from the prior snapshot, so attention was not repackaged as an additional update.
  3. Material changeOpenRouter’s official model page listed $2 input and $10 output per million tokens while still showing 50% off. BitShovel corrected the prior $2.50/$15 display accordingly.
