Quick answer
OpenAI announced GPT-6 for ChatGPT on October 7, 2026, alongside Intelligent UI: responses that can combine text with visual or interactive elements such as charts, controls, and simple task-specific tools. OpenAI said rollout began with Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise, then expanded to Free and Go the following day; Enterprise access can depend on admin settings. The change applies to ChatGPT chat, not Work or Codex. GPT-6 is not listed by exact name in Chat AI's public model directory, so availability in Chat AI is unverified.
Intelligent UI lets ChatGPT shape some answers around the task
OpenAI describes Intelligent UI as a way for GPT-6 to compose a response from text, visuals, and interactive elements. Depending on the question, a response may include a chart, diagram, buttons, a form, or a small tool such as a bill splitter. OpenAI says a plain text response remains an option when that is the clearer format. These are examples and product claims from the launch announcement, not a guarantee that every prompt will produce an interactive interface.

The announced rollout covers paid plans first, then Free and Go
OpenAI said the global rollout started October 7 for ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise in the Chat tab, with Free and Go scheduled to follow on October 8. It identifies GPT-6 Sol as the model for Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise, and GPT-6 Luna for Free and Go. Enterprise access can depend on workspace administrator settings. A rollout announcement describes intended availability; an individual account may still need to check its model picker.

This is a ChatGPT chat update, not a Work or Codex model change
OpenAI explicitly limits this release to the Chat experience in ChatGPT. It says the models powering ChatGPT Work and Codex are not changing as part of the announcement. This distinction matters if you use GPT-6 names across multiple OpenAI products: the same name or family does not mean the product surfaces received the same release at the same time.

OpenAI's evaluations are not a substitute for checking your own results
OpenAI reports improvements in several safety and factuality evaluations, while its system card also records regressions in some deliberately challenging safety tests. The company cautions that these tests do not estimate how often such behavior occurs in ordinary production use. Treat the system card as a description of OpenAI's testing, not a guarantee that a response is correct or safe for a high-stakes decision.

GPT-6 availability in Chat AI is unverified
GPT-6 is not listed by that exact name in Chat AI's current public model directory. This article therefore makes no claim that Chat AI includes GPT-6 or its Intelligent UI feature. Check the live model selector and directory for the exact models currently listed.
