OpenAI releases the GPT-5.6 model series, with Sol being the standout model achieving 13.33% on ARC-AGI-3 public and the first to win a game, demonstrating improved ability to orient itself in unfamiliar environments.
GPT-5.6 Sol is the standout model of the GPT-5.6 family. It is the first model to win an ARC-AGI-3 public game. The model is able to read an unfamiliar scene correctly and in the game's own vocabulary. It won the game on ARC-AGI because it correctly oriented itself in a new environment first.

## GPT\-5\.6Series
OpenAI·Jul 9, 2026·3models·15reasoning variants
GPT\-5\.6 Sol is the standout model of the GPT\-5\.6 family\. Sol at max reasoning effort is the only performant model \(as of July 2026\) averaging 13\.33% on Public and 7\.78% on Semi\-Private\. It is the first model to win an ARC\-AGI\-3 public game \(ft09, 87%\)\. Sol is able to read an unfamiliar scene correctly and in the game's own vocabulary\. It treats a failed hypothesis as a reason to re\-plan rather than thrash\. Most agent failures are upstream of the code they write or the action they take\. Sol is able to perform on ARC\-AGI not because it executes better, but because it correctly orients itself in a new environment first\.
