OpenAI's GPT-5.6 models to launch next week

OpenAI is reportedly set to launch a new artificial intelligence model, GPT-5.6, as early as next week, with upgrades in coding, agent workflows, and 3D generation, and will be introduced at a more competitive price point to mount a challenge to rivals.

OpenAI's chief scientist, Jakub Pachocki, recently told the staff in an internal memo that  GPT-5.6 will be a "meaningful improvement" over GPT-5.5.

The GPT-5.6 family will include the standard GPT-5.6 model and Mini and Pro variants. Its rollout is expected to take place next week.

The context window of the GPT-5.6 may expand from 1 million to 1.5 million tokens, with a 10 percent to 15 percent efficiency boost. 

Meanwhile, the updated model is reported to outperform Anthropic's Mythos series in agentic coding and surpass Claude Fable 5 in the generation of scalable vector graphics.
