GPT-5.5 Pro or Llama Guard 4 12B: which to pick

Neither model has a coding score yet, so the two cannot be ranked on coding.

Pick GPT-5.5 Pro for a larger context window (1.05M against 164K tokens).

No benchmark has tested both yet. GPT-5.5 Pro has results on Epoch Capabilities Index, ARC-AGI and ARC-AGI-2; Llama Guard 4 12B has none yet. Compare them on price and context instead.

Which one for your work

Each card is decided by one number both models carry. Where only one has it, the card says so and makes no call.
