Latest change

GPT-5.6 — Luna, Terra, and Sol — reached general availability on July 9, with OpenAI's own launch post landing the same day as Simon Willison's independent GA writeup.

Earlier contextThe story so far

OpenAI previewed GPT-5.6 Sol on June 26 as its next flagship, pairing coding, science, and cybersecurity gains with its most advanced safety stack. A day later the family shipped only to a restricted trusted-partner tier, alongside an unrelated Anthropic release the same day.
