First off, it hasn’t been long. But in the brief time that I’ve been heavily using GPT 5.2 (just 5.2, not the other variant models), it is consistently outputting better results off the bat for improvements to my app, especially in areas where the UI is a little complex.
One of the things I’ve really loved about Gemini 3 is its strengths in UI (not producing ugly, skewed, or archaic layouts/half-baked UI with the right prompting), but I’m finding GPT 5.2 is leaving me feeling the same, if not better.
The depth of “thought” and execution speed are also comparable. Ultimately, more testing needed but I’m very pleased to find it shaping up well against Gemini 3 especially since I’ve recently gotten occasional errors with Gemini being unavailable due to demand.
Opus is another great heavy-hitter but compared to GPT 5.2 it feels like molasses and I don’t know that I’ll use Opus anymore (the current release) except to run multiple agents on the same task for varied output.
More testing needed still!
I actually agree, 5.2 has been doing spectacularly for me. I think opus 4.5 is better, but for the price difference 5.2 actually comes out much better. This is coming from an opus 4.5 fanboy.
I really hope GPT 5.2 become better than Opus, burning $100 is hard
I cancelled my chatgpt subscription, current term ends on dec 23. Cancelled it as opus/sonnet/ gemini on antigravity were that good.
Tried 5 2 the day it came and since. It was so good, yes even catching issues that opus missed, that I canceled my cancelation :p.
The combination of its deep thinking with Codex max execution is amazing.... and for me a must have complementary to opus / antigravity
Good try, Sam
You are not slick, Dario
That sounds very expensive.
Are you using medium or high?
