For context, I have access to MS Copilot through my workplace. To see what it looks like, I have tried to login through https://copilot.microsoft.com/ , where I was informed that my account, although recognised, is not yet supported. However, I can get more or less the same chat window, with access to all the data, through https://m365.cloud.microsoft/ A redirect could have been useful.

#422Here are 18 pelicans - six each for Luna, Terra and Sol at the six different reasoning effort levels (plus the price to generate each one): https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2026/gpt-5.6-pelican... Or if you want to see some in 3D, OpenAI featured a pelican riding a tricycle, bicycle, pony and another pelican in their livestream this morning: https://www.youtube.com/live/Wq45rvPGNHs?t=1070s
AI really sucks at bicycles...
Re: GPT-5.6
#423I think 5.6 Sol is only as good as 5.5 or Opus 4.8 in terms of getting its given work done. It just has an uncanny ability to pickup more work that it can tackle next that the older models lack, or have not been trained to do before.
Where folks are seeing a difference between working with Fable or 5.6 I think also boils down to this phase shift.

gpt-5.6-sol Max pelican didn’t skip neck day
Re: GPT-5.6
#425Zero information on the knowledge cutoff. The model itself responds it's June 2024 which is weird given that GPT-5.5 has knowledge cutoff at August 2025.
Re: GPT-5.6
#426> GPT‑5.6 also introduces more predictable prompt caching, including support for explicit cache breakpoints (opens in a new window) and a 30-minute minimum cache life. Great to read they are moving away from the 5 minute cache defaults. Hopefully other providers follow soon!
They highlight the cache write price now much more in the guide. Did it increase vs. prior generations?

#427Bro these colors on chars are unbelievlable, I can not understand which is opus, which is fable, which is GPT...
Re: GPT-5.6
#428In the introduction video they say 5.6 Sol autonomously post-trained 5.6 Luna. Curious what this means.
/goal tune 5.6 Luna parameters until performance is maximized across all benchmarks

Surely "how to draw a SVG pelican on a bike" has made it into the training data by now ...
Re: GPT-5.6
#430Earlier quoted context omitted.
Same here - gave 5.5 a web design to implement and it sucked. Gave the same to Fable and it still sucked.
did you use Claude design, their tool meant for Web design? because if not then you're the problem .
Perhaps you could explain why they are the problem.
