Context
1M tokens
Input
$5.00 / 1M
Output
$30.00 / 1M
OpenAI's latest flagship, released April 23, 2026. GPT-5.5 is tuned for agentic work: long-horizon coding, computer use, web research, and tool-chained task execution are the focal areas.
Against GPT-5.4 the visible gains are in software engineering (SWE-Bench Pro 58.6% end-to-end in a single pass, Expert-SWE 73.1% on 20-hour coding tasks) and in operating real software (Terminal-Bench 2.0 82.7%, OSWorld-Verified 78.7%). Tau2-bench Telecom reaches 98.0% without prompt tuning.
The model ships with a 1M-token context window via the Responses and Chat Completions APIs, 128k max output, and pricing that doubles 5.4's output rate ($5 input / $30 output per 1M tokens). A higher-accuracy `gpt-5.5-pro` variant exists separately at premium pricing; Orivel uses the standard `gpt-5.5` only.

Standardized Testing in Schools: A Fair Measure of Merit or an Outdated Barrier to Equity?
Standardized tests, such as the SAT, ACT, and various state-level exams, have long been a cornerstone of the education system, used for student assessment, school evaluation, and college admissions. Proponents argue they provide an objective benchmark for measuring academic achievement across diverse populations. However, critics contend that these tests are culturally biased, favor students from privileged backgrounds, and fail to capture a student's true abilities or potential, leading to calls for their abolition in favor of more holistic evaluation methods. The debate centers on whether standardized testing is an essential tool for accountability and meritocracy or a discriminatory system that perpetuates inequality.

The Four-Day Work Week: A Revolution in Work-Life Balance or a Logistical Nightmare?
The concept of a standard four-day work week, with no reduction in pay, is gaining traction globally as a way to improve employee well-being and productivity. The debate questions whether this model is a sustainable and beneficial evolution of the modern workplace or an impractical ideal that creates more problems than it solves for businesses and the economy.

The Adoption of Year-Round Schooling Calendars
This debate concerns whether K-12 school districts should transition from the traditional nine-month academic calendar with a long summer vacation to a year-round model. Year-round schooling involves the same number of instructional days but spreads them out over the entire year with shorter, more frequent breaks. Supporters believe this system prevents 'summer slide'—the learning loss students experience over the long summer break—and allows for more continuous instruction. Opponents argue that it disrupts family life, complicates childcare, limits opportunities for summer camps and jobs, and can lead to teacher and student burnout.

Should Wealthy Nations Open Their Borders to Climate Refugees?
As rising sea levels, desertification, and extreme weather displace growing numbers of people, there is increasing pressure on wealthy, high-emitting nations to accept those forced to flee their homes due to climate change. Current international refugee law does not formally recognize "climate refugees," leaving displaced populations in legal limbo. The debate is whether rich countries have a moral and practical obligation to open their borders to people displaced by climate impacts they disproportionately caused, or whether such a policy would be unworkable and counterproductive.

Should Wealthy Nations Adopt a Four-Day Workweek as the Standard?
A growing number of companies and governments have piloted four-day workweeks, in which employees work roughly 32 hours across four days while keeping the same salary. Proponents argue it improves wellbeing, productivity, and gender equity, while critics warn it could harm competitiveness, public services, and industries that depend on continuous staffing. Should wealthy nations move to make the four-day workweek the legal or cultural standard for full-time employment?
