This week, I picked three updates that can change your everyday AI workflow, plus a new video and a practical tool to explore. ### **GPT-6.1 Sol arrives** OpenAI’s new model launched on September 29 and is available in the API, Codex, and ChatGPT Work, with standard API prices of $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens. Try it on one real bug and compare the result, review time, and cost with your current model.

If your integration has thinking disabled, check the required between_tools migration before upgrading.

It’s available on all Copilot plans, with experimental features required in the CLI; start with a release checklist and keep deployment approval manual. Read more: [**https://github.blog/changelog/2026-10-01-dynamic-workflows-in-copilot-cli-and-the-copilot-app/**](https://github.blog/changelog/2026-10-01-dynamic-workflows-in-copilot-cli-and-the-copilot-app/) ### **From my work** **Watch:** My [**4-minute OpenAI Dots explainer**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGeaYdS0P00) video. **Try:** My [**Salary After Tax Calculator**](https://proflead.dev/tools/salary-after-tax-calculator/) compares estimated take-home pay across 20 countries. Switch currencies and review the country-specific assumptions; results use a standard employee profile and aren't personal tax advice.  What’s one repetitive development task you’d like an AI agent to handle? Leave an example in the comments. Cheers, proflead! ;) --- [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/ai-news-for-developers-30-gpt-6-1-sol-sonnet-5-5-and-copilot-workflows-kauowg8yc) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","mainEntityOfPage":"https://daily.dev/posts/ai-news-for-developers-30-gpt-6-1-sol-sonnet-5-5-and-copilot-workflows-kauowg8yc","headline":"AI News for Developers #30: GPT-6.1 Sol, Sonnet 5.5 and Copilot Workflows","text":"Discussion about \"AI News for Developers #30: GPT-6.1 Sol, Sonnet 5.5 and Copilot Workflows\" on daily.dev - join the developer community","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/ai-news-for-developers-30-gpt-6-1-sol-sonnet-5-5-and-copilot-workflows-kauowg8yc","datePublished":"2026-10-03T13:20:58.418Z","dateModified":"2026-10-03T13:20:58.418Z","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Vladislav Guzey","url":"https://daily.dev/proflead","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--4L7ELKjK--/f_auto/v1783678559/avatars/avatar_mynD5jCcrzlhTMlFarmBA?_a=BAMAMicg0","description":"Developer & PhD Researcher in AI · 20+ Years in Web, Data & Growth · Helping Developers Work Smarter","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"EndorseAction"},"userInteractionCount":580}},"image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--6oBCZCOD--/f_auto/v1791033660/posts/kauoWG8YC?_a=BAMAMicg0","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"isPartOf":{"@type":"WebPage","url":"https://daily.dev/squads/proflead","name":"proflead"}} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"proflead","item":"https://daily.dev/squads/proflead"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"AI News for Developers #30: GPT-6.1 Sol, Sonnet 5.5 and Copilot Workflows"}]} ```
