GPT-5.2

GPT-5.2 is a state-of-the-art AI model from OpenAI designed for real work across writing, analysis, coding, and problem solving. It handles long contexts and multi-step tasks better than earlier versions, and it’s tuned to give accurate responses with fewer errors. Supports 400k tokens of context, and native vision. Optional parameters: Set reasoning effort: Select from `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`. No reasoning effort by default. Set web search and real-time information access: toggle it `on`, otherwise it is `off` by default. Set verbosity to control response details at the end of your message: Select from `low`, `medium`, `high`. This is set to `medium` by default.
