OpenAI launched GPT-5.4 mini and nano models on March 17, offering near-flagship performance at lower costs, though pricing increased up to 4x for some use cases. The company acquired Python tooling startup Astral on March 18 to integrate popular developer tools into its Codex AI coding platform. OpenAI also overhauled ChatGPT's model selection, launched a "Parameter Golf" compression challenge, and announced safety initiatives, while competitors like Cursor responded with their own optimized coding models.
