OpenAI on Thursday launched its GPT-5.2 artificial intelligence model, after CEO Sam Altman reportedly issued an internal "code red" in early December pausing non‑core projects and redirecting teams to accelerate development in response to Google's Gemini 3.
GPT-5.2 comes with improvements in general intelligence, coding and long-context understanding, the company said in a statement.
The new model is expected to bring even more economic value for users, as it is better at creating spreadsheets, building presentations and handling complex multi-step projects, OpenAI said.
Pretty impressive benchmarks
Much fewer hallucinations...
390x efficiency increase in 1 year 🤯

And still the same underlying pre-trained model since May last year..
.. OpenAI has hasn’t a successful training run since then:

So they’re seemingly doing well despite these challenges, if the benchmarks and evals are to be believed!
Why did he call code red if he still had this ace up his sleeve?
