Artificial Analysis ranks GPT 5.6 Luna similar to GPT 5.4, but that never matches my real world experience. AA seems to do a good job making a single number as representative as possible but there is still so much benchmarks don't communicate.
You guys read Z.ai's terms of service, right? Broad and perpetual license over inputs and outputs, and even your name and profile picture. Vague prohibitions on whatever may harm Z.ai’s "interests" or even the "national interests" of any country. Vague prohibitions on "disturbing" or "inappropriate" content, whatever that is. Vague prohibitions on discussing Z.ai, even my posting this comment violates it. Can ban you…

This is not uncommon. Also, it only applies to their chat offering, not the api. OpenRouter also offers the API with ZDR. While shitty, i’d say that its really not that special.
None of the major LLM chat providers (ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, and I just confirmed this) claim rights over your input.
They also don't claim rights over your output, but because of how copyright law might apply, they explicitly assign all the rights to the generated output.
Not just that but, even if they wanted to claim ownership of the output, courts in the US have deemed that copyright cannot be assigned to machine-generated output.
So yeah, happy to take a look at a counter-example if you have one (aside from GLM 5.3, obv.).

Compare to the cost of professional-grade tools in other trades and craft hobbies. Sure, $4000 can be a lot of if you're a casual hobbyist or are struggle to meet everyday lifestyle costs, but it's definitely not "insane" if this is the trade you make your living from or if you've established a lifestyle that affords disposable income for your hobbies. And for some people, $4000 for a device you have complete control…
That's only half the reason it's expensive. The other reason is that it would likely take years to spend $4000 (plus the real cost of electricity) worth of tokens on a 3rd-party provider that's running a similar limited, DS Flash type model. By that time, the hardware will be obsolete, assuming it's still operational.
Since that cluster only yields 20-30 tok/s on that size of model, at least a decade before the hardware breaks-even with current token costs, and that's not counting electricity. Assuming continued downward pressure on token prices, and the cost of electricity, it never pays for itself.

It's China. It's a given that they use your data for training. At least they're nice enough to be honest about it.
