I've stopped trusting these "trust me bro" benchmarks and just started going to LM Arena and looking for the actual benchmark comparisons. https://arena.ai/leaderboard/code

This is not any better of a benchmark

can't wait! Thanks guys. PS: when you drop a new model, it would be smart to reset weekly or at least session limits :)

OpenAI has been very generous with limit resets. Please don't turn this into a weird expectation to happen whenever something unrelated happens. It would piss me off if I were in their place and I really don't want them to stop.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking or suggesting. They are adults. I'm sure they can handle it.

Just as a heads up, even though GPT-5.5 is releasing today, the rollout in ChatGPT and Codex will be gradual over many hours so that we can make sure service remains stable for everyone (same as our previous launches). You may not see it right away, and if you don't, try again later in the day. We usually start with Pro/Enterprise accounts and then work our way down to Plus. We know it's slightly annoying to have to…

Conceivably you could have a public-facing dashboard of the rollout status to reduce confusion or even make it visible directly in the UI that the model is there but not yet available to you. The fanciest would be to include an ETA but that's presumably difficult since it's hard to guess in case the rollout has issues.

The more interesting part of the announcement than "it's better at benchmarks": > To better utilize GPUs, Codex analyzed weeks’ worth of production traffic patterns and wrote custom heuristic algorithms to optimally partition and balance work. The effort had an outsized impact, increasing token generation speeds by over 20%. The ability for agentic LLMs to improve computational efficiency/speed is a highly impactful…

There's already KernelBench which tests CUDA kernel optimizations.

On the other hand all companies know that optimizing their own infrastructure / models is the critical path for ,,winning'' against the competition, so you can bet they are serious about it.

With Anthropic, newer models often lead to quality degradation. Will you keep GPT 5.4 available for some time?

If GPT-5.5 Pro really was Spud, and two years of pretraining culminated in one release, WOW, you cannot feel it at all from this announcement. If OpenAI wants to know why they like they’ve fallen behind the vibes of Anthropic, they need to look no further than their marketing department. This makes everything feel like a completely linear upgrade in every way.

The suggestion wasn't about general limit resets when there is bugs or outages, but commercially useful to let users try new models when they have already reached their weekly limits.

It's possible that "smarter" AI won't lead to more productivity in the economy. Why? Because software and "information technology" generally didn't increase productivity over the past 30 years. This has been long known as Solow's productivity paradox. There's lots of theories as to why this is observed, one of them being "mismeasurement" of productivity data. But my favorite theory is that information technology is m…

Downvoted by the AI Nazis. They are running a tight ship before the IPOs.

I downvoted it because it doesn't add anything useful to the conversation, and I don't own any AI stock.

Why would you be confused?

The UI tells you which model you're using at any given time.
