GPT-5.2 has radically changed my outlook on OpenAI. Head and shoulders above others.
The excellence is there.

- TrackerFF 9mo agoI'm also a happy customer. But, one thing has been consistent for the past 3 years: After every release from all the serious competitors, the hype can go either way. As far as the hype cycles go, OpenAI is oscillating between "Best model ever" and "What a letdown, it's over" at least twice a year. The competition is fierce, and a never-ending marathon of all the players getting ahead just a bit. No clear long-term winner.

Anthropic is focusing on developers as a clear target, and Gemini has the backing of Google. I don’t see OpenAI winning the AI race with marginally better models and arguably a nicer UI/UX (ymmv, but I do like the ChatGPT app experience). That said, my usage decreases month over month.
- jackling 9mo agoReally, I found 5.2 to be a rather weak model. It constantly gives me code that doesn't work and gets simple APIs wrong. Maybe it's just weak on the domain I'm working in.
- NBJack 9mo agoIt hasn't done great in the head-to-head comparisons I've seen, and has trailed in several areas on the leaderboards (though not all). Based on the 'code red' they declared, this model seems to have been rushed a bit.
