I’m excited to hear work is being done on models that support function calling natively.

Does anybody know if performance could be greatly increased if only a single language was supported ?

I suspect there’s a high demand for models that are maybe smaller and can run faster if the tradeoff is support for only English.

Is this available in ollama ?

Are there any other models that support function calling?

Looks like terrific technology. However, the translation says that it's an "irrevocable revocable" non-commercial license with a form to apply for commercial use.

That's weird, because the repository states Apache 2.0. https://github.com/THUDM/GLM-4/blob/main/LICENSE

Oops, you are right. The code is Apache 2.0, license for the model weights is separate.

> GLM-4V-9B possesses dialogue capabilities in both Chinese and English at a high resolution of 1120*1120. In various multimodal evaluations, including comprehensive abilities in Chinese and English, perception & reasoning, text recognition, and chart understanding, GLM-4V-9B demonstrates superior performance compared to GPT-4-turbo-2024-04-09, Gemini 1.0 Pro, Qwen-VL-Max, and Claude 3 Opus.

But according to their own evaluation further down, gpt-4o-2024-05-13 outperforms GLM-4V-9B on every task except OCRBench.
