OpenAI Launches GPT-5.2 for ChatGPT Users a Week After Declaring 'Code Red'

[splifingate]

There is a distinct lack of emdashes in the article, so I that's a testament it's come straight from the press release.

I ran your statement through 'Writing Tools' in (Apple) Notes, and the following are what I received:

Friendly:

“The article seems to have been straight from the press release, and it’s missing a lot of emdashes.”

Professional:

“The absence of emdashes in the article strongly suggests that it is directly derived from the press release.”

Concise:

“The article lacks emdashes, suggesting it’s a direct quote from the press release.”

Summary:

“The article lacks emdashes, indicating it is a press release.”

Key Points:

• Article Source: Press release.
• Article Characteristic: Lack of emdashes.

List:

* There is a distinct lack of emdashes in the article.
* This suggests that the article is a direct copy of a press release.

Table:

Compose (various selections, via ChatGPT):

“The absence of emdashes in the article strongly suggests a concerning lack of original reporting, implying it was copied directly from a press release.”

“It seems the article doesn’t have many emdashes, which might suggest it was based closely on the press release.”

“The article lacks em dashes, suggesting it came from a press release.”

I particularly enjoyed the latter "em dash" version, as it is precisely aligned--and better-suited--to accepted convention than the previous smashburger examples

You need to use the shift key.

Oh, it's all those footloose and fancy-free young-un's, who think they can flaunt capitalization rules 🤣 I think they're missing on a whole lovely world without that SHIFT key...

i don’t know what you’re talking about

As a longtime lover of em-dashes, I continue to protest the maligning of the em-dash as an artifact of AI writing. Justice for em-dashes.

Viva los "—"!!1!

I hope it'll work with Word files better. Sick if it telling me it can't edit a Word document because of some Python error I'll never understand, or the Word document is too big, or whatever else. Though I do like 5.1's confidence, it feels much more self-assured about giving you what I think I want. I wish it would just give me what I need though...

Is this any different than a car company releasing a car that mostly gets the speedometer reading right?

Yes.

 

[splifingate]

I'm about to "code red" some dinner over here.
Def helps.

A person can't live on love alone!

 

[FlavorfulTreat]

Maybe this will help Sam Altman figure out where the food goes on his new human baby. Poor dolt.

 

[Plutonius]

If declaring something code red, maybe Apple should try it .

 

[WarmWinterHat]

Oh boy, another model.. here we go..

 

[Astuces iOS]

I hope it gets better at coding

Apple's new version of Genmoji is going to set new AI benchmarks.

 

[cnnyy20p]

These companies basically have new versions in the closet wait others to release first and keep the bubble going.

 

[svish]

Will try it out and check the improvements once it is available for all users.

 

[Ctrlos]

It probably won't make much difference. The circular data centre financing model is going to come crashing down soon and probably take most AI companies with it. Once the oncoming RAM price shock hits phones and games consoles we're going to see a massive downturn in consumer electronics turnover along with it.

Customers still see AI as a feature and not a product. Gemini is a thing that comes 'free' with their Android phone and they're not going to pay someone to let them make sausage machine clip-art. Google will probably come out on top because it made the LLM part of its other products, not the product.

Responses with errors are less common, but the information the response is based upon can still be wrong.

Don't rely on these tools for important information like travel, legal, finance, or health.

OpenAI has more frequent updates than iOS. Apple should hire the OpeAI team to work on Siri and battery life.. oh wait, they left Apple in the first place as Tim didn't pay them enough 🤦‍♂️

You have to understand, that Tim is very visionary 😂

 

[Joe Bogger]

... but you're nearly always the first to comment on new topics at MacRumors 🤣

Right, and barely anything with substantial content

 

[Skyscraperfan]

Those chatbots are still gimmicks until they finally solve problems that humans were not able to solve.

 

[CATiNTHESTORE]

Imaging to be so useless! Now, Rat GPT has a group chat and you can work as a team.

 

[JulianL]

Sure hope those hallucinations are fixed now. Here is a previous chat.

LOL. What a load of gibberish. You did get off lightly though, at least it didn't add - 'I think you meant It's so annoying'.

 

[bluecoast]

I think they had to do it, as the release of 5.0 was a damp squib & Gemini 3 was very good. Looking forward to trying it out.

 

[gumblecosby]

“OpenAI says that GPT-5.2 outperforms industry professionals at knowledge work tasks”

Reality says otherwise here. If they mean the dictionary outperforms a person at word selection then yeah fair enough, but those metrics are pulled from the arse presumably.

As a longtime lover of em-dashes, I continue to protest the maligning of the em-dash as an artifact of AI writing. Justice for em-dashes.

And then there are those of us who also use en dashes, semi colons, and more!
