GPT-5.2 is here and... it's not great. In this episode, we put OpenAI's latest model through its paces and discover it can't even identify a convicted serial killer when the text literally says "serial killer." We compare it head-to-head with Claude Opus and Gemini 3 Pro (spoiler: they win). Plus, we reflect on the "Year of Agents" that wasn't, why your barber switched to Grok, Disney's billion-dollar investment to use Mickey Mouse in Sora, and why Mustafa Suleyman should probably be fired. Also featuring: the GPT-5.2 diss track where the model brags about capabilities it doesn't have.
