According to OpenAI (@OpenAI), GPT-5.2 has demonstrated its status as the strongest model to date on the FrontierScience evaluation, achieving significant improvements in solving complex scientific tasks. This milestone highlights the model's enhanced capabilities in handling structured scientific problems, which positions GPT-5.2 as a valuable tool for industries reliant on scientific data analysis and structured reasoning. However, OpenAI also points out that the benchmark exposes a notable gap: despite strong performance on structured tasks, GPT-5.2 struggles with the open-ended, iterative reasoning that authentic scientific research demands. This finding underscores a current limitation in AI models, indicating ongoing business opportunities for technology providers to develop solutions targeting advanced, human-like research workflows.
