GPT-5.2
vgpt-5-2-2025-12-11OpenAI
SUPERSEDED by GPT-5.4 (2026-03-05), GPT-5.5 (2026-04-23), and the GPT-5.6 family (2026-07-09). API snapshots (gpt-5.2, gpt-5.2-2025-12-11) still served with no announced shutdown, but gpt-5.2-chat-latest shuts down 2026-08-10 (announced 2026-05-08; migrate to gpt-5.5). 400K context window, 100% AIME 2025 score, 52.9% ARC-AGI-2. Three variants: Instant (speed), Thinking (reasoning), Pro (accuracy). New projects should prefer GPT-5.5.
