Overview
OpenAI is tracked in LLMWIKI's News index. This feed presents OpenAI's recent AI-related announcements in reverse-chronological, timeline form — built for scanning quickly rather than reading as a narrative. For fuller context on why each item matters, see the linked company news summary above.
Each entry below is tagged by type (Launch, Update, Report, Partnership, or Research) so you can scan for the kind of news you're actually looking for rather than reading the full list top to bottom.
Timeline
GPT-5.6 rolls out publicly in three variants
OpenAI released GPT-5.6 as three distinct models: Sol (its most capable), Terra (a balanced everyday option), and Luna (built for speed and low cost). The rollout was staggered ahead of the public release, reportedly at the request of the US government given the model's capability jump.
ChatGPT Work launches, powered by GPT-5.6
A new mode called ChatGPT Work pulls context from a team's existing tools to turn scattered notes and drafts into finished output, positioned as a companion to the standard Chat mode rather than a replacement.
ChatGPT desktop app redesigned
The desktop app added a global Chat/Work switcher, unified Recents across both modes, Projects support, and cloud-synced conversations across web, mobile, and desktop.
Custom instructions limit more than tripled
Plus, Enterprise, Business, and Education users can now save up to 5,000 characters of custom instructions, up from 1,500 previously.
Codex context window restored to 272K tokens
A bundled-instructions bug affecting GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna inside Codex was fixed, restoring their full 272,000-token context windows.
About This Feed
This feed focuses specifically on OpenAI's AI-related product and business news — model launches, feature updates, pricing changes, and significant reported developments — rather than general company news unrelated to AI. Items are sourced from OpenAI's own announcements as well as reporting from established technology and business outlets, and each entry is paraphrased rather than quoted at length from its original source.
Considerations
Treat every item on this feed as a snapshot of what was publicly reported at the time it was added, not a live, continuously updated ticker. Specific figures, pricing, and benchmark claims reflect the company's or a news outlet's own reporting and haven't been independently re-verified by LLMWIKI.
