correlation does not imply causation…

z.ai posted an announcement earlier that day (in GMT+8) saying that they will make GLM-5.2 available later today at 5:21pm so it can't be a coincidence. Good troll.

Could it just be that they wanted to release 5.2 at 5:20 ish???? Why does it have to be a troll??

Edit: spelling

Based on my first impressions it's about 6 months behind the frontier labs. So very similar to Opus in January. That is, pretty damn impressive and very useable. When it comes to architecture or complex problems it does noticeable worse but I don't think anyone expected anything else. One particular interesting strong point seems to be design and user interfaces. It does seem to punch above it's weight there but that…

Appreciate the quick take! Sounds like a keeper to me. I think the Opus and Fable design (that I saw for a short while) have gotten stale

Can you expand on what you mean by stale? I don't get how an artefact-producer can get "stale" besides literally out-of-data information which I dont think you mean because you mention fable.

I think they mean the style these tend to put out is becoming noticeable in too many places and therefore the resulting frontends feel stale, ie not "fresh" or unique

Tbh if we had a Harris admin I expect we'd have some sort of locking down by now.

Probably. But it would be at least somewhat thought-out and apply to all the AI providers. Not just the one currently disfavored by Captain Dipshit and the Sycophants. I really don't know why business cozies up to Trump so much, given how unbelievably unreliable and mercurial he is about...everything.

American models are restricted from telling you inconvenient truths just as much, you just erroneously assume to know what those truths are in the first place. Which is of course circular thinking: why would they restrict things you already know about? Why would they do it in such a clumsy and obvious way? Look at MKULTRA, you know next to nothing about it and much less do you know what they do in that direction now.…

Yeah, who needs censorship when Canadians attend no kings protests about a democratically elected leader of another country and not King Charles. Ask Claude a simple question, which is a more democratic country El Salvador or Canada. It’s so completely biased about “western” countries it’s not even funny.

FWIW, the protests were called “No Tyrants” in Canada

Crossing fingers for a 5.2 flash release - it’s been a while but I still feel like 4.7 flash is one of the strongest local coding models

Really? I had a terrible experience with 4.7-flash. Qwen-3.5 is still the best local model for me. (3.6 pushed VRAM usage just out of 24GB and then you're not using a consumer GPU any more)

> 3.6 pushed VRAM usage just out of 24GB and then you're not using a consumer GPU any more

BTW, you can buy an AMD RX 9700 with 32GB VRAM for $1200. Get two of them, and you have a quite powerful local setup. I can run Qwen 3.6 35B at around 80 tok/s and 50% GPU load (300W) and still have plenty of VRAM and power budget left over to run a smaller model for summarization, in parallel.

Highly recommend if you want to play with something that doesn't involve NVidia and/or unobtanium-class hardware.
