GoKawiilOpenAI on Thursday announced its latest artificial intelligence model, GPT-5.5, which the company says is better at coding, using computers and pursuing deeper research capabilities.
The launch comes less than two months after OpenAI released GPT 5.4, the latest sign of the breakneck pace of development that's driving the AI sector.
"What is really special about this model is how much more it can do with less guidance," OpenAI President Greg Brockman said during a briefing with reporters on Thursday. "It can look at an unclear problem and figure out just what needs to happen next. It really, to me, feels like it's setting the foundation for how we're going to use computers, how we're going to do computer work going forward."
OpenAI is racing to keep up with rivals including Google and Anthropic, whose latest model, Claude Mythos Preview, has captivated Wall Street.
