GPT-5.5
OpenAI1. Strongest Agentic Coding Model
- State-of-the-art on Terminal-Bench 2.0 (82.7%), Expert-SWE (73.1%), and SWE-Bench Pro (58.6%), outperforming GPT-5.4 on complex coding tasks.
- Holds context across large systems, reasons through ambiguous failures, and carries changes through surrounding codebases with fewer tokens.
2. Higher Intelligence at GPT-5.4 Latency
- Co-designed, trained, and served on NVIDIA GB200/GB300 NVL72 systems to match GPT-5.4 per-token latency while performing at a significantly higher level.
- Uses fewer tokens to complete the same tasks, making it more efficient as well as more capable.
3. Powerful for Knowledge Work & Computer Use
- Scores 84.9% on GDPval (44 occupations) and 78.7% on OSWorld-Verified for autonomous computer operation.
- Excels at generating documents, spreadsheets, and reports; naturally moves across finding information, using tools, and checking output.
4. Scientific Research Co-Scientist
- Leading performance on GeneBench, BixBench, and FrontierMath; helped discover a new proof about Ramsey numbers verified in Lean.
- Strong enough to meaningfully accelerate progress at the frontiers of biomedical and mathematical research.
LLaMA 3 8B
MetaLLaMA 3 8B is a highly efficient, small-scale open-source model perfect for simpler tasks and edge devices. It's great for applications like chatbots, text classification, and sentiment analysis where resource constraints are a concern. Its speed and small footprint make it easy to deploy.
