I hope it’s K3 level and below 1T, we need more competition!
Edit: GLM dropped
GLM-5.3 dropped today! (14/8/2026)
open weights release in ~2 weeks!
Published benchmarks:

Appears they removed the branch and changesets

glm 5.2 is already pretty good, soo…
quite large though!
it’s by far best sub trillion parameter model. fits in 512gb with 1m context at q4. Or less rental hardware than any model that scores higher than it.
on the extreme opposite side of the spectrum:

or… really extreme… https://huggingface.co/AxiomicLabs/GPT-X2.5-135M
Very likely the same architecture, just with more post training.
What makes you say that? Not arguing, just curious.
Just repeating rumors (sorry, should have been clearer): GLM 5.3 is 5.2 with extra post training, their big upcoming model is 5.5. It kind of makes sense too; pretraining on a new architecture/size is expensive and it’s natural for these companies to try to wring an extra minor version or two out of each one.
this has been a crazy few weeks! lol
