GPT-6.1 Terra Spotted, GPT-6.5 Rumored, Fable 5.5 Rumors and So Much More!
A website people think could be teasing GPT-6.5, a new OpenAI model name in Microsoft’s code, and reporting about the next Claude and Gemini models: today we’re going through the leaks, where they came from, and what actually looks interesting. MiniMax M3.1 Flash is already out. We also look at real creator comparisons—a robot assembly, gummy-bear websites and a pelican flying a Roadster—to see which results are worth the wait and what the creators reported paying. The website is not a confirmed OpenAI release announcement. The Claude sign-in example is hypothetical, and comparison costs are the creators’ reported runs. Sources checked October 20, 2026.
