OPENAI

OpenAI fires back at Google with GPT-5.2 after ‘code red’ memo

OpenAI has released GPT-5.2, its newest AI model, after an internal “code red” pushed teams to move faster in response to Google. The update focuses on stronger reasoning, better coding, and more reliable results for real work.

Key Points:

• Google’s Gemini 3 raised pressure inside OpenAI. GPT-5.2 is the company’s answer, meant to show it still leads in advanced AI.

• The model handles complex tasks more smoothly. It works better with long documents, technical problems, and structured thinking.

• GPT-5.2 comes in multiple versions. Some are faster. Others think more deeply. Users can pick what fits the task.

• OpenAI is aiming at business use. GPT-5.2 supports coding, analysis, planning, spreadsheets, and presentations.

• GPT-5.2 is rolling out to paid ChatGPT users and API customers first. Older models are still available for now.

AI AND RESEARCH

Google launches its deepest AI research agent

Google has launched its deepest AI research agent to date. It is built to handle long, complex research tasks that usually take hours or days.

Details:

• The agent breaks big questions into steps, searches the web, reads sources, and combines the findings into one clear report.

• This provides stronger reasoning, greater accuracy, and fewer made-up answers than earlier research tools.

• The agent is designed for serious research, analysis, and synthesis rather than simple questions.

• Google has opened access through an API so that companies can build the research agent into their own products.

• The release came right as OpenAI announced GPT-5.2, showing how fast the AI race is moving.
