OpenAI is scheduled to retire approximately 15 of its AI models, including five from the Codex family, on July 23, 2026. This deprecation will affect production endpoints, potentially causing them to stop responding without advance error notification. The article advises users to test recommended replacements, noting that current generation models like GPT-5.6 (GPT-5.6 "Sol", gpt-5.6-terra, GPT-5.6-luna) are suggested alternatives. A tool is also mentioned for tracking retirement dates across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. AI
