OpenAI
GPT-5, released by OpenAI on August 7, 2025, is a large language model that combines direct generation and extended reasoning in a single unified system with a built-in routing mechanism. It features a 400K token context window, 128K maximum output tokens, native multimodal support (text, image, audio, video), and demonstrated strong results across coding, mathematics, visual understanding, and health benchmarks at release. GPT-5 targets complex multi-step tasks including advanced coding, mathematical problem solving, and long-context analysis.
OpenAI
GPT-5.2, released by OpenAI on December 11, 2025, is a large language model from the GPT-5 family that improves on GPT-5 in general intelligence, long-context understanding, agentic tool-calling, and vision. It features a 400K token context window, 128K maximum output tokens, and a knowledge cutoff of August 2025. GPT-5.2 targets long-context coding tasks, extended document analysis, and complex agentic workflows requiring reliable instruction following.
