GPT-5.6 Terra vs GPT-6 Astra
何时用哪一个
gpt-5.6-terra 和 gpt-6-astra 均提供完全相同的 1050000 上下文窗口、128000 最大输出 token，并支持完全相同的功能和模态。选择 gpt-5.6-terra 可大幅节省成本，因为其 $2.5 的输入费率和 $15 的输出费率远低于 gpt-6-astra 的 $10 输入费率和 $50 输出费率。仅当您的工作负载明确需要其 2026-04 知识截止日期，而不是 gpt-5.6-terra 提供的 2026-02 截止日期时，您才应该选择 gpt-6-astra。

单个 Prompt，两个模型 —— 通过网关实测
GPT-5.6 Terra 通过 · 3 sentences
Enabling reasoning makes the model generate additional internal analysis tokens and perform more computation before producing the final answer, increasing usage per request. Those extra tokens are billed like other model output or are reflected in higher-priced reasoning-model rates, so even unchanged user traffic can cost substantially more. The bill doubled because average cost per request rose, likely from longer reasoning traces, more complex model routing, or both.

Enabling reasoning makes the model do more work per request, often generating internal reasoning tokens that are billed even though they do not appear in the final answer. If traffic, model choice, and pricing stayed the same, those extra tokens likely explain why our bill doubled—not longer answers or more users. We should verify the usage breakdown, then reserve higher reasoning levels for tasks where improved results justify the added cost.

GPT-5.6 Terra 通过 · 8/8 cases
```python def longest_run(xs): if not xs: return 0 best = 1 cur = 1 for i in range(1, len(xs)): if xs[i] == xs[i - 1]: cur += 1 else: cur = 1 best = max(best, cur) return best ``` The bug is that `cur` and `best` were counting adjacent *matches* rather than the number of items in a run: a run of one item has zero matching adjacent pairs, and a run of length `n` has only `n - 1` such pairs. Initializing both counters to `1` for a nonempty list and resetting `cur` to `1` when the value changes makes them represent actual run lengths. Updating `best` on every iteration also ensures a run that continues through the final element is included.

```python def longest_run(xs): if not xs: return 0 best = cur = 1 for i in range(1, len(xs)): if xs[i] == xs[i - 1]: cur += 1 else: cur = 1 best = max(best, cur) return best ``` The original code counts equal adjacent pairs rather than items, so every nonempty run is undercounted by one: a single-element input returns `0`, and a run of three equal items returns `2`. Starting and resetting `cur` to `1` counts the first item of each run, while the empty-input check preserves a result of `0`. Updating `best` after each iteration includes runs ending at the last index without needing a final flush; the original also updated during trailing runs, but undercounted them.

Today, our API gateway introduces cross-provider prompt caching, reducing repeated token processing while preserving your existing model routing. Teams can store reusable system prompts, policy blocks, and long context prefixes once, then serve them to supported providers with consistent cache keys and observability. The feature tracks hit rates, latency savings, and estimated cost reductions in the dashboard you already use for requests. Why pay to recompute identical context on every call? Configure cache policies by route, tenant, model, or TTL, and fall back automatically when a provider lacks compatible caching. Built-in controls help protect sensitive data through encryption, regional settings, and explicit expiration. Start with a single endpoint, compare results across providers, and scale prompt reuse without rewriting application logic.

Introducing Cross Provider Prompt Cache, a new API gateway feature that reuses eligible prompt content across supported AI providers. Why pay to process the same context every time? Configure caching once at the gateway, then route requests between models while keeping shared instructions, reference material, and conversation prefixes ready for reuse. Caching controls let teams set expiration windows, isolate tenants, and exclude sensitive content. Cache analytics show hit rates, estimated savings, and latency trends, helping developers tune performance with confidence. Existing routing policies continue to work, so adoption fits your current architecture. Start with a single application, measure the results, and expand as needed. Available today in the dashboard and API, with documentation and examples to guide your first deployment.

GPT-5.6 Terra 和 GPT-6 Astra 哪个更便宜？
在 输入 / 1m tokens 方面，GPT-5.6 Terra 更便宜（$2.5 对比 $10，相差 4.0×）。其他行可能得出相反的结论——上方表格提供了完整信息，实际成本取决于你的组合使用情况。
我可以在不进行两次集成的情况下，对 GPT-5.6 Terra 和 GPT-6 Astra 进行 A/B 测试吗？
可以。两者均通过同一个兼容 OpenAI 的端点提供服务，并使用同一把 API 密钥——切换只需更改一行模型字符串，因此你可以将一部分流量路由到各个模型并直接比较账单。
GPT-5.6 Terra 和 GPT-6 Astra 支持提示词缓存吗？
是的 —— 两者对缓存读取的计费均低于其输入费率，因此热前缀工作负载的成本低于标价。准确的缓存读取行位于上方的定价表中。
