That would be a laudable goal, but I feel like it's contradicted by the text:

> Even on a low-quality image, GPT‑5.2 identifies the main regions and places boxes that roughly match the true locations of each component

I would not consider it to have "identified the main regions" or to have "roughly matched the true locations" when ~1/3 of the boxes have incorrect labels. The remark "even on a low-quality image" is not helping either.

Edit: credit where credit is due, the recently-added disclaimer is nice:

> Both models make clear mistakes, but GPT‑5.2 shows better comprehension of the image.

Yeah, what it's calling RAM slots is the CMOS battery. What it's calling the PCIE slot is the interior side of the DB-9 connector. RAM slots and PCIE slots are not even visible in the image.

They also changed "roughly match" to "sometimes match".

Look, just give the Qwen3-vl models a go. I've found them to be fantastic as this kind of thing so far, and what I'm seeing on display here, is laughable in comparison. Close source / closed weight paid model with worse performance than open? common. OpenAI really is a bubble.

Leave it to OpenAI to be dishonest about being dishonest. It seems they're also editing this post without notice as well.
