OpenAI releases 'GPT-5.5,' surpassing Claude Opus 4.7 in performance.

OpenAI announced ' GPT-5.5 ' on April 23, 2026. GPT-5.5 is touted as offering significantly higher performance at a processing speed equivalent to GPT-5.4, and has recorded higher scores than the Claude Opus 4.7 in various benchmarks.
Introducing GPT-5.5 | OpenAI
GPT-5.5 is offered within ChatGPT as 'GPT-5.5 Thinking' and 'GPT-5.5 Pro'. GPT-5.5 Thinking has achieved better results than Claude Opus 4.7 and Gemini 3.1 Pro in benchmarks measuring agent performance and knowledge performance, while GPT-5.5 Pro performs even better than GPT-5.5 Thinking in complex tasks.

The graph below shows the results of performance tests conducted by the third-party organization Artificial Analysis for 'GPT-5.5,' 'GPT-5.4,' 'Claude Opus 4.7,' 'Claude Opus 4.6,' and 'Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview.' The horizontal axis represents the number of output tokens, and the vertical axis represents intelligence performance. The graph clearly shows the high processing performance per output token of GPT-5.5.


Also ranked number one in coding performance.

Agent performance was also ranked number one.

We've expanded browser use so Codex can interact with web apps, and test flows, click through pages, capture screenshots, and iterate on what it sees until it completes the… pic.twitter.com/rUguNHIcIB
It's also possible to 'generate asset images with ChatGPT Images 2.0 and then code them with GPT-5.5 to create a game.' The following post includes a gameplay video of a shooting game that was developed in just a few minutes using GPT-5.5 and ChatGPT Images 2.0.

I created a quick video game with it on Codex.
Create an image on ChatGPT Images 2.0, and asked Codex to make a basic funtioning video game referencing it.
