OpenAI: GPT-5.4
GPT-5.4 from OpenAI is an advanced AI model capable of handling text, images, and files, with a vast context length of 1,050,000 tokens. It supports reasoning and tools integration, though it does not provide structured output. This model excels in coding tasks but falls short in agentic reasoning, achieving a blended benchmark score of 90.1 across four independent evaluations. For those needing robust AI capabilities in diverse modalities at a reasonable price point, GPT-5.4 is worth considering. Its competitive pricing of $2.5 per million input tokens and $15 per million output tokens makes it accessible for projects that require substantial processing. With strong performance in specific benchmark areas but limited coverage in others, this model shines where its strengths align with project needs.
