GPT-6.1 Terra: What It Does, Who Gets It, What It Costs

GPT-6.1 Terra: What It Does, Who Gets It, What It Costs Open Source Factory · October 27, 2026 · Source-based analysis Watch the English video English motion graphic: an illustrated see–act–verify workflow, not a recorded Terra test. Motion graphics, original music and sound design: Open Source Factory. The detail I kept coming back to in the Terra launch was where you can use it. GPT-6.1 Terra arrived on October 26, but looking for it in ordinary Chat will get you nowhere. It is available in Work and Codex. That distinction tells you a lot about the job OpenAI wants it to do. The official rollout note places images, screens and actions together. My interest is practical: can it read something on screen, make the right change, and leave a result I can verify? The release makes Terra worth trying for that loop. It does not, by itself, establish how reliably Terra completes your own work. This is a source-based launch analysis, with my own cost calculations and a proposed test protoc...

AGENTS & WORKFLOWS Muse, Grok Bot and Dots: Choosing an Agent by the Job Open Source Factory · Oct 21, 2026 · 9 min read Watch the English motion graphic 60-second English motion film. Original animation, newly composed music and sound design: Open Source Factory. Conceptual explanation from official documentation; not a recording of a product test. For a weekly report, I care about what is ready the next morning: the correct file, traceable sources and a clear record of changes. Muse, Grok Bot and dots organize that work differently. Their documented workflows are a better starting point than a general intelligence ranking. In this article What are we actually comparing? What does it cost to start? What do people who used them actually say? Which would I choose for the same job? What would make this a fair test? Three questions before handing over a real account My starting choices are Muse for everyday delegation, Grok Bot for a team of named roles, and OpenAI dots for ongoing ...

A selfie-based clothing preview can help decide which style deserves a closer look. It cannot supply the garment's measurements or return terms.

AGENTS & WORKFLOWS OpenAI DevDay 2026: What Could You Use at the Event? Open Source Factory · Sep 29, 2026 · 4 min read DevDay's agent story spans models, tools and shared work. For a developer, the useful distinction is which parts were available at the event and which remained previews or promises. The September 29 roundup below keeps those rollout states beside the features. In this article Persistent work between prompts The developer-tool changes Shared work inside ChatGPT Live features, previews and promises Some features are live, some depend on the plan or market, and others remain previews or announcements. The sections below separate those states so a developer can tell what can be tested at the date of the event. A self-rendered concept image for the shared-workspace theme; not an OpenAI product screenshot. A grouping of the announcements by function, based on OpenAI’s official recap . Persistent work between prompts Dots is the clearest sign of that direction...

The Reported 53-Image Incident: What Users Can Check

POLICY & RESEARCH The Reported 53-Image Incident: What Users Can Check Open Source Factory · Sep 27, 2026 · 11 min read OpenAI's report leaves an uncomfortable gap: it describes 53 user images posted externally but says the affected users cannot be identified. Checking future training settings is actionable. It cannot answer whether an earlier upload was involved, so the incident and the available controls need separate explanations. In this article The reported incident What the count covers The path to an external image host Why individual notification is unavailable Limits on checking an individual image Data controls for future conversations Other incidents in the investigation The practical takeaway first, since it is the part you can act on: if you use ChatGPT on a personal account, check your training setting — one toggle, and I walk you to it below. The harder part is what you cannot do. There is no way to find out whether one of your images was among the 53, because...
