I strongly disagree. I’ve yet to find an AI that can reliably summarise emails, let alone understand nuance or sarcasm. And I just asked ChatGPT 5.2 to describe an Instagram image. It didn’t even get the easily OCR-able text correct. Plus it completely failed to mention anything sports or stadium related. But it was looking at a cliche baseball photo taken by an fan inside the stadium.

I have had ChatGPT read text in an image, give me a 100% accurate result, and then claim not to have the ability and to have guessed the previous result when I ask it to do it again.

I'm still trying to find humans that do this reliably too.

To add on, 5.2 seems to be kind of lazy when reading text in images by default. Feeding it an image it may give the first word or so. But coming back with a prompt 'read all the text in the image' makes it do a better job.

With one in particular that I tested I thought it was hallucinating some of the words, but there was a picture in the picture with small words it saw I missed the first time.

I think a lot of AI capabilities are kind of munged to end users because they limit how much GPU is used.
