Description
GPT-5.2 Chat is the fast, lightweight member of the 5.2 family, optimized for low-latency chat while retaining strong general intelligence. The model uses adaptive reasoning to selectively engage deeper analysis on challenging queries, enhancing performance on mathematical, coding, and multi-step tasks without degrading typical conversation speed.
Key characteristics:
- Adaptive Reasoning: Selectively thinks harder on more challenging queries
- Improved Conversational Warmth: Better instruction adherence and stable short-form reasoning
- High-Throughput Design: Suitable for interactive workloads where responsiveness and consistency matter more than deep deliberation
- Lightweight Architecture: Optimized for low-latency responses
