Summary
OpenAI released GPT-5.6, a new model suite with three versions: Sol (flagship), Terra (medium-tier for high-volume work), and Luna (fast and affordable). The models are designed to excel at coding, cybersecurity, biology, and agentic AI tasks (where AI systems can plan and execute multi-step goals with minimal human direction), and Sol is priced competitively against competitors like Anthropic's Claude.
