LLM/AI Changelog

We’re retiring the Voice experience in the ChatGPT macOS app on January 15, 2026. This change allows us to focus on more unified and improved voice experiences across our apps.
Voice will continue to be available onchatgpt.com, iOS, Android, and Windows app.No other ChatGPT features on macOS are affected.

Today, we’re releasingGPT-5.2, the next upgrade to the GPT-5 series. GPT-5.2 is smarter and more useful for both work and learning—while remaining just as enjoyable to talk to. As with GPT-5.1, we’re continuing to improve our main models for everyone on a regular basis to make them more useful and enjoyable to use.GPT-5.2 Instantis a fast yet powerful workhorse for everyday work and learning, with clear improvements in info-seeking questions, how-tos and walk-throughs, technical writing, and translation, all while retaining the warmer, more conversational tone introduced in GPT-5.1 Instant. Early testers noted its more clearly structured explanations where important info is highlighted upfront. It’s also more effective at supporting studying and skill-building, as well as offering clearer job and career guidance.GPT-5.2 Thinkingsolves harder work tasks more effectively and with more polish—particularly in spreadsheet formatting and financial modeling, alongside improvements in slideshow creation. Early testing showed gains in coding, summarizing long documents, answering questions about uploaded files, walking through complex math and logic step by step, and helping with planning and decision-making with clearer structure and thoughtful detail.GPT-5.2 Prois our smartest and most trustworthy model yet for difficult questions where a higher-quality answer is worth the wait. In early testing, it shows fewer major errors and stronger performance across complex domains like programming.All three models (Instant, Thinking, and Pro) have a new knowledge cutoff of August 2025. For users, this means GPT-5.2 starts with a more current understanding of the world, so answers are more accurate and useful, with more relevant examples and context, even before turning to web search.Read ourblogfor more details on examples and evals.Update for free and Go users:We’re removing automatic model switching for reasoning in ChatGPT.

Many of you have asked for a more flexible Voice experience—now, you can speak, listen, and see your conversation at the same time. Answers will be spoken alongside streamed text, image search results, widgets (maps, weather, etc.) and more—right in the same chat thread.
This makes voice chats clearer, richer and more contextual by pairing spoken answers with visual context. You can:

This means Voice can better adapt to your day and meet you where you are, whether you're practicing a language and seeing words spelled out, need to refer to a measurement while cooking hands-free, or talking through a chart or code sample where visuals help.
This update is rolling out to all users globally on the ChatGPT mobile app and chatgpt.com. If you prefer the original Voice experience, you can switch back anytime by going to Settings and turning on “Separate mode” under Voice Mode. We’ll continue listening and refining this experience as we build toward Voice interactions that are both integrated and immersive.

We’re making ChatGPT Voice a seamless part of the ChatGPT experience, so you can use voice right inside the chat interface you already use every day—no separate mode required.Many of you have asked for a more flexible Voice experience—now, you can speak, listen, and see your conversation at the same time. Answers will be spoken alongside streamed text, image search results, widgets (maps, weather, etc.) and more—right in the same chat thread.This makes voice chats clearer, richer and more contextual by pairing spoken answers with visual context. You can:
Follow along with typed answers as you listenSee visual search results like images, charts, and map cards in real timeRefer back to earlier messages without interrupting the conversationType back when you can’t talk and still get a Voice responseShare photos to discuss them out loud
This means Voice can better adapt to your day and meet you where you are, whether you're practicing a language and seeing words spelled out, need to refer to a measurement while cooking hands-free, or talking through a chart or code sample where visuals help.This update is rolling out to all users globally on the ChatGPT mobile app and chatgpt.com. If you prefer the original Voice experience, you can switch back anytime by going to Settings and turning on “Separate mode” under Voice Mode. We’ll continue listening and refining this experience as we build toward Voice interactions that are both integrated and immersive.

ChatGPT now adds more inline images from the web to help you quickly understand topics like well-known people, places, and products. When visuals can add clarity, you’ll see images placed beside the relevant paragraph. You can click on any of the images to see them in original dimensions and with the source attribution.
