ChatGPT 5.6 Sol Still Hallucinates: 3 Real-World Failure Cases
kaljakin · reddit · 2026-08-26
A Reddit user critiques ChatGPT 5.6 Sol, sharing three failure cases despite its long "thinking" time:
- Flawed Logic: Asked for a small car for narrow streets, it recommended a larger Hyundai i30 instead of a MINI Cooper. When challenged, it bizarrely claimed that 3-door cars have longer doors than 5-door ones based on a flawed geometric argument.
- Search Failure: It recommended a cave ("Grgosova špilja") for a return trip, failing to notice clear text and image info on Google Maps stating it was closed for the holidays, despite being asked about opening hours.
- Data Task: The user also attempted to use the model to script a market-price-based anomaly detector for supplier price lists.
