The main breakthrough of GPT-5 was to route your messages between a couple of different models to give you the best, cheapest & fastest answer possible.This is cool but imagine if you could do this not only for a couple of models but hundreds of them, big and small, fast and… pic.twitter.com/ww2ApYTN3D— clem 🤗 (@ClementDelangue) October 17, 2025

Small Models Have Arrived
For the past few weeks, I've been playing with gpt-5.6-luna. It is shockingly capable, fast, and smart. I regularly see it do ~100 tps, and rip around my codebase, email, and knowledge base.
OpenAI partners with Cerebras
OpenAI partners with Cerebras to add 750MW of high-speed AI compute, reducing inference latency and making ChatGPT faster for real-time AI workloads.

Introducing GPT-5.4
Introducing GPT-5.4, OpenAI’s most most capable and efficient frontier model for professional work, with state-of-the-art coding, computer use, tool search, and 1M-token context.

GPT-5.6 Preview System Card - OpenAI Deployment Safety Hub
GPT-5.6 is a new family of three models: Sol, our new flagship model; Terra, a capable lower-cost option; and Luna, our fastest and most cost-efficient model. The safeguards we have built for this launch -- our most robust yet -- are built to deliver these models safely and at scale, around the world.

GPT 5.5: The System Card
Last week, OpenAI announced GPT-5.5, including GPT-5.5-Pro.

Photon, our inference engine, isn't fast just because of GPU kernels. A lot of the speedup comes from engine-level work: request scheduling, prefix caching, image processing, all tuned to keep the GPU saturated. https://t.co/3M7eFcFKo5— vik (@vikhyatk) May 2, 2026
Better Call Sol The Workhorse
OpenAI’s GPT-5.6-Sol is finally here, along with the cheaper Terra and Luna.
