>If you have suggestions on how to name our products better......
Too late for that. I hope you guys can at least stick to these naming scheme for at least another 2-3 years going forward. Not everyone follows AI / LLM intensely, and it seems there is a new naming changes every year or so.
At least conceptually OpenAI's naming is easier to understand than Claude.
It terms of capability, it would be great to make it clear somewhere that this is 6.1 Model "+" technical communication, vision and computer use improvements. So that at least we know what we should try with these new release and choose a better model for certain workload.
Right now, other than pricing, it is confusing as hell. And in hindsight I wonder if there are fatigue in choosing one people just go with Open Model and stick with it if it is good enough.
