OpenAI is releasing a new model, GPT-5.2, with the goal of staying competitive with rivals such as Google's Gemini 3. The release is seen as an effort by OpenAI to demonstrate it is not falling behind in the market. However, there is some uncertainty about the current status of the release, as some reports suggest GPT-5.2 has already been released, while others mention a different version, GPT-5.4.
