one of the most beautiful things about OpenAI is that every employee really has a voice.
i wanted to capture what it feels like to work here, what our mission means to me, and why you should join us. so i made this video with Codex, shared it with the team, and they felt it was
cool use case of chatgpt work i heard last night:
connect your family calendars and explain your kids' interests.
every morning for the drive to school, have it make a podcast that talks about one kid's soccer game that afternoon, one kid's upcoming birthday, some news, etc.
GPT-5.4 full at xhigh scored 51, exactly where Luna max sits today. GPT-5.4 costs $2.50/$15; Luna now costs $0.20/$1.20. In other words, roughly four months later, OpenAI is selling March’s full flagship intelligence at about one-thirteenth the token price.
The day we develop really good models. There will be signs.
Reliability increasing despite load going up and up. Sudden efficiency gains. Things getting faster. Resets.
These kinds of things.
After deployment, we applied GPT-5.6 Sol to advance the frontier of efficiency by making itself more efficient to run.
The results:
- 20% lower serving costs from production GPU kernel improvements.
- 15%+ better token-generation efficiency from improved speculative decoding.
