- OpenAI’s new GPT-5.5 Prompt mannequin turns into ChatGPT’s default, changing GPT-5.3 Prompt with considerably fewer gratuitous emojis in responses.
- PCWorld reviews the replace delivers 52.5% fewer hallucinations and 37.3% fewer inaccurate claims whereas offering extra concise solutions.

One motive I took a break from ChatGPT just a few months in the past (I’m again now) was how sick to demise I acquired of its fixed emojis, particularly when it got here to lists. The mind emoji was my least favourite, together with the inexperienced checkmarks, the sharp fingers, and the yellow “hazard” indicators.
Properly, I’ll imagine it after I see it, however with its newest “prompt” mannequin, OpenAI guarantees that we’ll be getting means much less of these “gratuitous” emojis in ChatGPT’s responses.
Obtainable now for all ChatGPT customers—I haven’t seen it on my account but, so it should nonetheless be rolling out—GPT-5.5 Prompt is now the default ChatGPT mannequin, changing GPT 5.3 Prompt.
Amongst different qualities, OpenAI says GPT-5.5 Prompt is extra correct, serving up 52.5 % fewer hallucinations than GPT-5.3 Prompt on “high-stakes” prompts regarding drugs, regulation, and finance, whereas reducing “inaccurate claims” by 37.3 % on “particularly difficult” chats. These are encouraging figures, however we’ll have to attend for unbiased benchmarks to guage its real-world efficiency.
The brand new mannequin must also supply “tighter and extra to-the-point” solutions “with out dropping substance,” OpenAI says. Maybe most significantly, GPT-5.5 Prompt “avoids issues that may make responses really feel cluttered, like gratuitous emojis.” Let’s hope so.
I’ve discovered that ChatGPT has been much less emoji-happy in current weeks, notably when switching to the Professional mannequin (which, presently, is GPT-5.5). Nonetheless, the odd smiley or thumbs-up has nonetheless managed to look every now and then for the earlier “prompt” mannequin, versus Gemini and notably Claude, that are virtually emoji-free.
Different options in GPT-5.5 Prompt embrace elevated effectiveness at pulling in context from earlier chats, information, and Gmail (supplied you’ve enabled ChatGPT’s Gmail connector). The brand new mannequin will “intelligently” resolve whether or not so as to add personalization from different sources and is “sooner” at scouring previous chats, OpenAI says.
Lastly, you’ll be capable of assessment which “reminiscence” sources have been utilized in a given chat irrespective of which ChatGPT mannequin you’re utilizing, which is sweet for nixing a reminiscence supply that’s old-fashioned.
I’ll have extra to say as soon as I’ve had an opportunity to offer GPT-5.5 Prompt a trial run, and hopefully we’ll have complete benchmarks from unbiased testers quickly. But when ChatGPT’s new “prompt” mannequin does handle to dial again the emojis, that’ll get a giant smiley from me—plus possibly a inexperienced checkmark or two.
