How did GPT-5.6 change the ambition or scope of what you shipped?

GPT 5.6 (Sol) delivered a frictionless development experience, which is something new. While previously there would be few frustrations along the way, the new model has been largely joyful to use, or more accurately more unnoticeable, as it's surprising how quickly we get used to things. It just gets what you mean if u're clear enough.
Previously there were discussions about how the models are fundamentally stochastic, so we're more so at their mercy when doing things. But the new model showed me that it can indeed follow instructions well. It gets you and gets the job done.
Therefore, in terms of delivering a seamless experience and being a collaborative (listening) colleague, the gpt 5.6 model gets 10/10 from me. Now, it's time for me to test it on even more complex tasks and take it to its limit.
