GPT-6 Terra
Tracked as: GPT-6 Terra / GPT-6.1 Terra
Estimated release
Nov 17, 2026
Mid Nov 2026
Details
- Status
- Left out of the Sept 22 GPT-6 Sol and Luna launch; OpenAI has not said whether Terra continues
- Current model
- GPT-5.6 Terra, 42.1 on the Intelligence Index, released Jul 9, 2026 ()
- Projected score
- About 47.1 (+5)
- Typical cycle
- About 60 days between releases
Why this date
- GPT-5.6 Terra (Jul 9, 42.1, $2/$12) was the middle tier between Sol and Luna, but GPT-6 shipped only Sol and Luna
- GPT-6 Luna (38.1) already scores close to GPT-5.6 Terra at a fraction of the price, so Terra may be quietly dropped
- If Terra returns it would likely land between Luna and Sol; the projection assumes about 47
- No leak, listing or announcement; the date follows OpenAI's usual cycle and may never arrive
