Key claims and evidence
Key claims in source A
- the model can write code that enables it to control computers and carry out actions such as issuing keyboard and mouse commands in response to screenshots.
- The company said the new model comes with native computer-use capabilities, allowing it to operate devices and applications directly.
- The company said the new model performs better when answering complex questions that require gathering information from multiple sources.
- OpenAI also claims GPT-5.4 is its most factual model so far, with individual claims about 33 per cent less likely to be false compared with the earlier GPT-5.2 model.
Key claims in source B
- Where previous models required carefully structured prompts and multi-step supervision, OpenAI says 5.5 can take a “messy, multi-part task” and independently plan, use tools, check its work, navigate ambiguity, and keep…
- Across all of these, OpenAI says GPT-5.5 improves on GPT-5.4’s scores while using fewer tokens.
- OpenAI says GPT-5.5 matches GPT-5.4’s per-token latency in real-world serving, meaning it delivers a step up in intelligence without a corresponding increase in response time.
- GPT-5.5 is priced higher per token than GPT-5.4, but OpenAI says the net effect is better results for lower total cost in most workflows.

How score signals are formed
Bias score signal
Bias signal combines framing pressure, emotional wording, selective emphasis, and one-sided narrative markers.
Emotionality signal
Emotionality rises when evidence contains emotionally loaded wording and evaluative labels.
One-sidedness signal
One-sidedness rises when one frame dominates and alternative interpretations are weakly represented.
Evidence strength signal
Evidence strength rises with concrete claims, attributed statements, and verifiable contextual support.
