Not just for coding. I've been working on design docs, and find ChatGPT 5.2 finds more edge cases and suggests better ideas than Gemini 3. I sometimes feed the output of one into the other and go "ok, another AI says this, what do you think?" which gives interesting results.
Gemini often just throws in the towel and goes "yeah, the other one is right", whereas 5.2 will often go "I agree with about 80% of that, but the other 20% I don't, and here's why ..."
And I'm always impressed with the explanation for "here's why" as it picks apart flat out bad output from Gemini.
But, as with everything, this will very much be use-case dependent.
