OpenAI Launches GPT-5.5 to Challenge Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.7
Summary
OpenAI has introduced GPT-5.5, codenamed "Spud," designed for complex autonomous work and coding tasks without constant human oversight. The model is currently available for ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users. While OpenAI's benchmarks indicate GPT-5.5 outperforms Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.7 in agentic tasks and coding, independent reviewers note that Claude Opus 4.7 maintains leads in research writing, legal reasoning, and high-resolution vision capabilities.
