#8Both Gemini 3 and Opus 4.6 get this right. GPT 5.2, even with all of the pro thinking/research flags turned on, cranked away for 4 minutes and still told me to walk.
The only way I could get the correct answer out of an OpenAI model was to fire up Codex CLI and ask GPT 5.3.
So there's that, I guess.
