OpenAI has officially received permission from the Trump administration to launch GPT-5.6 to the general public after a two-week delay caused by regulatory scrutiny. The model was previously restricted to government-approved organisations during a limited preview, but CEO Sam Altman confirmed the green light allows a full rollout today.
On the same day, the company introduced ChatGPT Work, an agent designed to merge the capabilities of Codex with the reasoning power of the new GPT-5.6 suite. This tool targets non-technical users by enabling them to leverage Codex’s coding functions without writing code themselves. The system runs on three specific variants known as Sol, Terra, and Luna.
* Public access follows immediate regulatory approval
* The agent combines ChatGPT and Codex functions
* Powered by the Sol, Terra, and Luna model stack
