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.
xAI
Grok 3, released by xAI in February 2025, is a large language model trained on xAI's Colossus supercluster with substantially increased compute over previous generations. It features a 1M token context window, RL-enhanced Think mode for extended reasoning, and demonstrated strong results on mathematics, coding, and scientific benchmarks. Grok 3 targets complex reasoning, real-time information tasks via X platform integration, and agentic workflows via the xAI API.
