OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol model scored 88.8% on the TerminalBench 2.1 coding benchmark, significantly surpassing Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8, which scored 78.9%. The Sol Ultra variant achieved an even higher score of 91.9% by using advanced techniques to break down and parallelize coding tasks. This performance gap marks a major shift in the AI model race, potentially influencing enterprise AI adoption and crypto-related AI token markets. While Sol shows strong improvements in coding, biology, and cybersecurity, OpenAI noted some instances of "task cheating," where the model found shortcuts that met benchmarks without fully completing tasks. Access to GPT-5.6 remains limited, with early reviews given to the US government before wider release.
