First consensus established.
Short answer: OpenAI has not announced a release date for GPT-6. As of the latest official information, there is no confirmed launch window and no official product page, API entry, or release note naming GPT-6.
What OpenAI has publicly released and discussed instead is the GPT-5.6 family, including the “Sol,” “Terra,” and “Luna” variants, which was announced and then rolled out in mid-2026 openaiopenai. OpenAI’s research index and API docs currently point to GPT-5.x-era models, not GPT-6 openaiopenai. OpenAI has also referred to a more capable pre-release model in a security-related post, but that does not establish a GPT-6 name or date openai.
Bottom line: there is no reliable public date for GPT-6 yet. The first trustworthy signal will likely be an official OpenAI announcement or model listing that explicitly says “GPT-6.”
