GPT-5.6 Terra Pro or o3 Pro: which to pick
Neither model has a coding score yet, so the two cannot be ranked on coding.
Pick GPT-5.6 Terra Pro for output tokens 6.7x cheaper ($12.00 vs $80.00 per million) and a larger context window (1.05M against 200K tokens).
No benchmark has tested both yet. GPT-5.6 Terra Pro has none yet; o3 Pro on Aider polyglot, WeirdML and AA Intelligence Index. Compare them on price and context instead.
