Recent leaks confirming OpenAI's GPT-5.5—codenamed "Spud"—has completed pretraining have driven trader consensus toward a mid-April large language model release, with market-implied odds tightly clustered around April 18 (34.5%) through April 29 (30.5%). Sam Altman's March 24 tease of "a few weeks" aligns with this window, amplified by internal sightings of the model outperforming GPT-5.4 in reasoning and coding benchmarks, though not yet matching rivals like Anthropic's Mythos. Competitive pressures from DeepSeek V4 and xAI's Grok 5 in Q2 2026 intensify urgency, but exact timing remains uncertain amid rapid training cycles noted by OpenAI's Brad Lightcap; watch for announcements ahead of potential limited enterprise rollout.

GPT-5.5 refers to a product explicitly named GPT-5.5, or a variant that is recognized as a direct successor to GPT-5.4, similar to the progression from GPT-5.1 to GPT-5.2. (e.g., GPT-5.6, GPT-5.7, etc., would qualify toward a "Yes" resolution to this market)
Qualifying releases of task-specialized models (e.g., GPT-Codex/Transcribe), cost-efficiency variants (e.g., Nano/Mini), or reasoning models of the o-series family will count for this market. Products labeled as a new flagship generation GPT-6 or similar will NOT qualify.
For this market to resolve to "Yes," a qualifying model must be launched and publicly accessible, including via open beta or open rolling waitlist signups. A closed beta or any form of private access will not suffice.
The release must be either clearly defined and publicly announced by OpenAI as being accessible to the general public or otherwise made publicly accessible and explicitly labeled within the company’s official website. Labeling errors, placeholder text, or version names displayed on the website that do not correspond to a model that is actually accessible to the general public will not qualify.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from OpenAI, with additional verification from a consensus of credible reporting.
