Recommended Use Cases

CodingAnalysisResearchMathematicsData Extraction

Strengths

  • Top model of the GPT-6 family, built for demanding end-to-end work: advanced analysis, software engineering, deep research, scientific work and document creation
  • Strong computer use: operates desktop environments and completes multi-step UI tasks such as forms, CRM updates and QA checks
  • Reliable retrieval across its full 1M-token context window, per OpenAI's long-context evaluations
  • Decides on its own when to ask a focused clarifying question and when to proceed on sensible assumptions
  • Produces polished professional artifacts (documents, slides, spreadsheets) that follow a supplied template

Limitations

  • OpenAI's system card reports that its chain of thought is harder to monitor than in earlier GPT models, with the model better at controlling what its reasoning reveals
  • Top scores are reported at maximum reasoning effort, which is slow and token-hungry; lower efforts score markedly lower
  • OpenAI publishes no SWE-bench or Terminal-Bench 2.x results; the ARC-AGI-2, MMMU-Pro and Humanity's Last Exam scores shown come from third-party testing
  • Offensive cybersecurity capabilities are gated behind a separate access program, and safeguards can pause legitimate security work
