OpenAI updated the GPT-5.5 System Card on July 9, 2026 by modifying the related research links displayed alongside the card. The updated version replaced two previously listed research articles with a newly published article titled 'Separating signal from noise in coding evaluations' dated July 8, 2026. This change appears to be a routine update to keep featured research current rather than a modification to the system card's substantive safety, deployment, or governance information.
This change does not materially affect the terms users operate under. The updated system card still describes the same safeguards for GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.5 Pro API deployment that were documented as of April 24, 2026. The modification replaces supporting research links with more current articles. No new obligations, restrictions, or rights are introduced.
Updated to include July 8, 2026 research on coding evaluations; removed LifeSciBench from featured articles.
