A systematic attempt to understand how good GPT-5.2 Pro is at Erdos problems, the hard, generally unsolved math problems much discussed here. The answer is pretty good! But also it is wrong about a third of the time and you wouldn’t know that if you couldn’t check the results.”” https://x.com/emollick/status/2015949184734568842

The actual ChatGPT chatbot is extremely capable, with the best agentic harness of any chatbot (though still lacking Skills), it is much more accessible than a CLI, but OpenAI doesn’t do a great job explaining what it can do, especially working with code, statistics and documents.”” https://x.com/emollick/status/2015877915649470770

Was serving GPT-5 profitable? According to @Jsevillamol, @exponentialview’s Hannah Petrovic, and @ansonwhho, it depends. Gross margins were around 45%, making inference look profitable. But after accounting for the cost of operations, OpenAI likely incurred a loss.🧵”” https://x.com/EpochAIResearch/status/2016652644560097377
A conventional narrative you might come across is that AI is too far along for a new, research-focused startup to outcompete and outexecute the incumbents of AI.

It is a bit weird that this is not a bigger deal in academic publishing circles.
