OpenAI has introduced GPT-5.5 and sees the model as an important step toward building a “super app.” According to OpenAI president Greg Brockman, the company is moving significantly closer to its vision of a more “agentic and intuitive” way of computing. GPT-5.5 improves coding, research, and the execution of complex tasks. It also uses fewer tokens than GPT-5.4, making it faster and more cost-efficient.
The goal behind this is clear. OpenAI wants to evolve ChatGPT from a traditional chatbot into a central platform where users can work, create content, conduct research, and automate tasks without constantly switching between different apps.
