OpenAI introduces GPT-5.2 with major improvements in reasoning and multimodal understanding.
Latest
- GPT-5.2 shows 25% improvement in complex reasoning tasks
- New extended thinking mode processes queries for longer reasoning chains
- Enterprise API pricing undercuts competitors by 30%
- Multi-modal support now includes real-time audio and video
- Fine-tuning available for enterprise customers
What Happened
OpenAI announced GPT-5.2 on February 10, 2026, positioning it as a major leap forward in AI reasoning capabilities. The model introduces an “extended thinking” mode that allows for longer, more deliberative reasoning processes. Early benchmarks show a 25% improvement over GPT-5.0 on complex reasoning tasks, including mathematics, coding, and scientific problem-solving.
The company also announced new enterprise pricing that undercuts competitors, and expanded multimodal support to include real-time audio and video input alongside text and images.

Why People Are Searching for It
Enterprise AI adoption is accelerating, with organizations seeking more capable reasoning models to reduce reliance on human expert review. GPT-5.2’s improvements directly address pain points in code generation, data analysis, and decision-support systems. The pricing announcement signals OpenAI’s strategy to lock in enterprise contracts before competitors release comparable models.
Context
This launch follows Meta’s release of Llama 4 and Anthropic’s Claude 4 last month. The AI reasoning benchmark wars have intensified, with each major lab competing on metrics like “long chain-of-thought” accuracy and multi-step problem solving. OpenAI’s focus on “extended thinking” mirrors investments by other labs in more sophisticated reasoning approaches.

What Happens Next
Expect rapid enterprise adoption over the next 60 days, with integration announcements from major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP). Competitors will likely respond with their own reasoning model announcements within 2-3 weeks. The $200B AI compute arms race will accelerate as organizations evaluate GPT-5.2 for production workloads.
FAQ
Q: How is GPT-5.2 different from GPT-5.0?
A: GPT-5.2 introduces extended thinking mode, which shows 25% improvement on reasoning benchmarks. It also adds real-time audio and video support.
Q: What is “extended thinking” mode?
A: Extended thinking allows the model to spend more computational steps on complex problems, similar to human deliberation. It’s especially useful for math, coding, and scientific reasoning.
Q: How much does GPT-5.2 cost?
A: OpenAI hasn’t released exact pricing, but early reports suggest 30% lower per-token cost than GPT-5.0. Enterprise pricing is under negotiation.
Q: When is GPT-5.2 available?
A: It’s available to enterprise customers now via beta. General API access rolls out in March 2026.
Q: Can I fine-tune GPT-5.2?
A: Yes, fine-tuning is available for enterprise customers with annual commitments of $100K+.
Q: How does this compare to Claude 4 and Llama 4?
A: Preliminary benchmarks favor GPT-5.2 on reasoning, though each model excels in different domains. Independent evaluation is ongoing.
