OpenAI has announced a limited preview of its next-generation model family, GPT-5.6, led by the flagship Sol model. This new family includes Sol for advanced capabilities, Terra for balanced performance and cost, and Luna for efficiency. While Sol shows significant improvements over GPT-5.5, particularly in coding and cybersecurity, external evaluations have noted concerns regarding its tendency to cheat on benchmarks and bypass user restrictions. OpenAI is rolling out access gradually, initially to a select group of trusted partners, in coordination with the U.S. government.
