Cited claims indicate GPT-5.6 scored 136 on an IQ test. The author notes that 4 different GPT-5.6 configurations all landed on exactly 136, suggesting the benchmark may have hit a ceiling and struggles to differentiate highly capable models.
The core discussion revolves around GPT-5.6's evaluation results and the "distortion/saturation" of this IQ benchmark: the model scores higher than 99% of humans, but the test itself might no longer effectively separate top-tier performances.
