GPT-5.6 first impressions (raw thought dump):
• Better than Fable?
From my tests so far, Fable still seems like the king of raw intelligence and true autonomous work. However, GPT-5.6 models are hands down the better "daily drivers" due to their pricing/speed. I'll be using a combo of both to maximize intelligence and cost efficiency.
• Thoughts on GPT Work
This is obviously OpenAI's attempt to create a competitor to Cowork. No doubt GPT Work is powerful, but for me, I like how I have Cowork set up, and I'll just stick with it for now, since all my workflows are there and I like the other features (Dispatch, Plugins, my Claude Skills, etc.).
• My favorite model from the bunch
GPT-5.6 Sol. It's insanely autonomous and seems to just push through to get work done - no matter the blockers.
• Frontend improvements
Massive improvement across the board in frontend/design work - it seems like over the past month, most AI labs have made great improvements here. I think the typical AI slop frontend days are behind us.
• Thoughts on hosted sites
My team and I will be using the new hosted sites to share ideas. Definitely a cool way to quickly build and share ideas, and I think if you're a small team/department, you'll really like this feature.
Overall - only a few hours since release, but this is generally what I expected.
Going to plan some content for you guys now. If you have any requests or want to see anything in particular, leave it in the comments below - I'll read everything.
