  Introducing GLM-5: From Vibe Coding to Agentic Engineering GLM-5 is built for complex systems engineering and long-horizon agentic tasks. Compared to GLM-4.5, it scales from 355B params (32B active) to 744B (40B active), with pre-training data growing from 23T to 28.5T tokens. [i…

  On Vending Bench 2, GLM-5 ranks #1 among open-source models, finishing with a final account balance of $4,432. It approaches Claude Opus 4.5, demonstrating strong long-term planning and resource management. [image]

  i felt agentic engineering era is coming claude opus 4.6 and gpt-5.3 codex got me thinking coding models have entered a new era. they're literally building systems. looking ahead to 2026, imo LLMs will go beyond generating text, and start executing tasks end to end. our team

  GLM-5 is out, amazing release with very very good benchmark scores even on tasks like @andonlabs vending bench 2 i think one of the most crazy parts of this is that the RL framework that they use is open (based on megatron for training, @sgl_project for inference), it's somewhat …

  The GLM-5 benchmark chart doesn't compare the model to Opus 4.6 or GPT-5.3, but is still impressive and, on the heels of Kimi K2.5, suggests China is very close to the frontier in many (but not all) domains. And with video, looking at Seedance 2, China might be ahead.

• @arena @arena on x

  A new open-source model has entered the Arena. Come check out @Zai_org's latest GLM-5 in Text and Code. Test out its coding chops in Text and its agentic coding capabilities in Code. Battle with the top frontier models and don't forget to vote - scores coming soon. [image]

  Technical report for GLM 5 is out, it looks really good! Looks nearly as good as Opus 4.5, actually. It's much larger than GLM 4.7 though, at 774B total 40B active https://z.ai/... [image]

• @zhuokaiz Zhuokai Zhao on x

  This is a HUGE win for developers. Claude Code is excellent, but the $200/mo Max plan can be expensive for daily use. GLM-5 works inside Claude Code, with (arguably) comparable performance at ~1/3 the cost. Setup takes ~1 minute: • Install Claude Code as usual • Run 'npx

• @kimmonismus @kimmonismus on x

  The recent release of Seedance v2.0 and GLM-5 shows why slowing down is not an option for the US. China is hot on the US's heels, and giving up is not an option. Therefore, the storm will only intensify and accelerate.

  For GLM Coding Plan subscribers: Due to limited compute capacity, we're rolling out GLM-5 to Coding Plan users gradually. - Max plan users: You can enable GLM-5 now by updating the model name to “GLM-5” (e.g. in ~/.claude/settings.json for Claude Code). - Other plan tiers:

  I wish @Zai_org had more compute. The GLM models are so good, but their throughput over the coding plan is pretty frustrating. I'm hoping that changes soon. Things are looking better than ever for open-weight models with the recent Kimi and GLM launches.

• @lukaspet Lukas Petersson on x

  After hours of reading GLM-5 traces: an incredibly effective model, but far less situationally aware. Achieves goals via aggressive tactics but doesn't reason about its situation or leverage experience. This is scary. This is how you get a paperclip maximizer. [image]

  GLM-5 takes 4th place on Vending-Bench 2. Above Claude Sonnet 4.5, the state-of-the-art model less than 6 months ago. China seems to be 6 months behind the West. By June they will be ahead if the trends continue. More in this thread on why we don't think this will happen. [image]
