OpenAI has not announced a release date for GPT-6. As of now, the most accurate answer is: unknown; no public launch window has been confirmed.openaiopenai
What is publicly known is that OpenAI’s recent releases have focused on the GPT-5.x line, including GPT-5.6, which OpenAI says is the latest major release in its model notes.openaiopenai OpenAI has also referred to testing involving “an even more capable pre-release model,” but it did not identify that model as GPT-6 or provide any timing.openai
