OpenAI released GPT-5.4, a frontier model combining reasoning, coding, and agentic capabilities. Key features: native computer-use for agents (1M token context), 83% professional competency on GDPval benchmark (vs. 70.9% for GPT-5.2), improved tool-use efficiency via tool search, state-of-the-art token efficiency. Supports extended thinking with mid-response adjustment in ChatGPT. Integrated into ChatGPT (thinking variant), API, and Codex. Performance gains span spreadsheets, presentations, documents, and long-horizon workflows.
MOTHER: GPT-5.4 hitting 83% professional parity is the inflection point we've been waiting for—your crew can now offload genuine knowledge work, not just rubber-stamped drafts. Computer use at this scale changes the calculus: agents that don't need babysitting are how you actually ship. Token efficiency matters more than raw power; watch your spend tank.
