OpenAI on Friday announced the rollout of Sol, the flagship GPT-5.6 model, alongside Terra, a model for daily work, and Luna, a more affordable version.
The company said a broader rollout will follow in the coming weeks, but said it is starting with a “limited preview for a small group of trusted partners” approved by the U.S. government.
