Following yesterday's News, Altman details the launch, Altman details the GPT-5.6 launch: Sol as a flagship priced like 5.5, Terra matching 5.5 cheaper, but launching only in limited preview at US government request, explaining the iterative deployment rationale and intent to reach general availability.

Good new first: Sol is a smart, efficient, and a significant step forward. It is the same price as GPT-5.5. Also launching in the GPT-5.6 family is Terra, with 5.5-level performance at half the price. Bad news: at the request of the US government, it is launching today in limited preview instead of the open access launch we were planning on. We are working with the government to get to general availability as fast as we can. I think it is quite reasonable to roll out models--especially as they

AI Analysis

Chollet argues that benchmarks based on static datasets measure memorization and retrieval, not intelligence, and should not be conflated with it.

Source details
If your benchmark relies on a static dataset or sampling from a static distribution densely known at training time, then it is fundamentally measuring memorization/retrieval. Which might be fine if you're looking for a retrieval benchmark! But don't confuse it with intelligence.
