OpenAI released GPT-5.6 and SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5 this week. Both systems are designed to handle multi-step tasks autonomously. On July 11, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated that the 5.6 Sol model was the best model in the world right now.
He said a lot of benchmarks suggested it was the top AI model, adding that the most reliable way to tell is that Elon Musk is obsessed with him again. Musk posted early on July 11 that Altman takes scamming to a whole new level. Altman responded that Musk is the one selling public market investors on short-term space datacenters.
5.6 Sol is the agentic version of ChatGPT. Grok 4.5 shares the same design focus on autonomous multi-step tasks. @Forbes reported the exchange between the two executives on the same day the models became available.
