It’s 7 a.m. in Bangkok.
I’m walking to Muay Thai practice.
The city’s waking up.
The notifications start rolling in — ChatGPT 5.2 is live.
I open it.
I test it.
And honestly?
It’s a little disappointing.
I compared ChatGPT 5.2 against Claude Opus 4.5 and Google Gemini, and the results are clear.
OpenAI is falling behind.
Claude 4.5 Just Feels Smarter
Claude 4.5 isn’t just faster.
It’s more human.
It understands context.
It predicts tone.
And it writes like it knows what you mean — not just what you say.
When I ran a writing test between both models, Claude’s output sounded like me.
ChatGPT 5.2’s didn’t.
It was clean, but cold.
That’s the issue.
AI is no longer about speed — it’s about connection.
Claude gets that.
ChatGPT doesn’t.
Gemini Is Winning The Automation Game
Then there’s Google Gemini.
And this is where OpenAI is really losing ground.
Gemini lives inside Google Workspace.
That means your Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and Calendar all talk to each other.
You can automate an entire workflow in one click.
That’s massive.
ChatGPT 5.2 still can’t do that natively.
And that’s a problem because the future of AI isn’t standalone chatbots — it’s integrated ecosystems.
When I tested Gemini, it created blog outlines directly in Google Docs.
When I tested ChatGPT 5.2, it stayed in the chat window.
The difference?
Gemini executes.
ChatGPT talks.
How I Tested ChatGPT 5.2
Here’s what I did.
I tested all three models across writing, coding, and automation.
- Claude 4.5 wrote smoother and faster.
- Gemini handled research and data tasks better.
- ChatGPT 5.2 was okay, but slower in long-form reasoning.
It froze on big SEO outlines.
Claude breezed through them.
Gemini summarized them instantly.
This is what my ChatGPT 5.2 Review boils down to — OpenAI has improved slightly, but others are moving twice as fast.
Why OpenAI Is Slipping
It’s not that ChatGPT 5.2 is bad.
It’s that others have outpaced it.
OpenAI is trying to build one model for everyone.
Claude and Gemini are building models for specific users.
Claude helps writers and professionals.
Gemini helps businesses and teams.
ChatGPT is stuck in the middle.
Being good at everything means being great at nothing.
And that’s the real problem.
My Workflow While Testing
After Muay Thai, I head to a café and start testing AI models side by side.
By 9 a.m., Claude has drafted a blog post.
Gemini has summarized my data.
ChatGPT 5.2 is still formatting.
That’s when I realized — speed is leverage.
When AI tools save time, you can focus on growth.
When they waste time, they cost opportunity.
That’s why I’m honest in this ChatGPT 5.2 Review — it’s good, but not good enough for serious workflows.
The Skool Mastermind
Next week, I’m hosting a Skool mastermind here in Bangkok.
It’s $97 to join.
No livestreams.
No fluff.
Just a small group of creators sharing what’s actually working.
We’ll talk about building communities, growing channels, and using AI to scale.
Because at the end of the day, tools don’t matter as much as systems.
You can use any AI model — but if you don’t have a workflow, you’ll stay stuck.
That’s the difference between learning AI and living AI.
Attention Is The Real Currency
Someone told me recently, “Julian, I have a better profile than you. Why do you make more?”
The answer is simple.
Attention.
I control distribution.
He controls credentials.
And attention always wins.
That’s what AI can’t replace — human creativity that grabs attention and uses algorithms properly.
That’s why communities and automation systems matter more than tools.
Claude 4.5 and Gemini are winning because they understand this.
They’re not just smart.
They’re connected.
Volume Beats Perfection
I fail every day.
Bad posts.
Broken automations.
Flopped videos.
But volume compounds results.
I don’t wait for the perfect AI model.
I test everything.
That’s how I found Claude.
That’s how I found Gemini.
That’s how I built AI Profit Boardroom — through speed and iteration.
If you wait for perfection, you lose momentum.
If you act fast, you learn fast.
That’s how AI really pays off.
What’s Next For ChatGPT
OpenAI has the resources to bounce back.
But they need to shift strategy.
The next model needs integration, not just intelligence.
ChatGPT must connect with Google, Notion, Slack, and Docs.
That’s how you stay relevant in 2025 and beyond.
Because the future of AI isn’t about chatting — it’s about executing.
If ChatGPT doesn’t evolve, it’ll fall into the same trap that killed older tech giants — comfort.
