GPT 5.6 SOL IS HERE!
How to run your personal + business life with GPT 5.6 Sol + Codex (full 49 min masterclass)
We tested it for 30 days and the video it's the CLEAREST look at the FUTURE of work:
Here's what's possible once you set it up:
1. Your inbox becomes cards every morning, each with a summary and a reply drafted in your own voice. Y
2. Your Slack, meeting notes, and company updates can turn into one daily feed with a clear next action. It learns what you care about over time and rewrites its own prompts to get sharper.
3. You can give your agent its own email address, so your other tools and even your team's Slack bot email it directly and it just handles things.
4. You can have it watch you do a task once and turn it into a skill it repeats forever.
5. You can set a long goal and walk away. You can have it run for 20 hours straight, and fine-tune your own models, something that was out of reach for non-engineers 12 months ago.
How to start: Open Codex, give it access to your computer, and ask it to suggest things it could do for you based on how you already work.
Full episode on @startupideaspod (thanks @danshipper for sharing your entire workflow and review of GPT 5.6)
Start with one boring task, get it working, and build from there.
You'll learn exactly how to make something similar.
GPT 5.6 Sol is impressive.
Sol (according to openAI benchmarks) is the best coding model out right now. It set a new state of the art on Terminal-Bench 2.1 at 88.8%, and its "ultra mode" hits 91.9%, beating Claude Opus 4.8, Fable 5, and even Mythos 5
this masterclass is 100% free, like always. For more @startupideaspod
