Hub Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence is either a field of research, the most important technical innovation of mankind, its downfall – or simply a pipe dream from Silicon Valley. Can machines really be intelligent? What is intelligence anyway? What opportunities does AI technology offer, and what are the risks? From neural networks to the science fiction vision of super AI, from deepfakes to AI surveillance: THE DECODER delivers the latest AI news and information on all facets of artificial intelligence.
Zhipu AI has launched GLM-4.6, the latest version of its open-source language model. The update brings a larger 200,000-token context window, improved programming abilities, and stronger logical reasoning. According to Zhipu, GLM-4.6 nearly matches Claude Sonnet 4 in real-world tests, winning 48.6 percent of head-to-head comparisons, and is more efficient than the previous GLM-4.5 release. In eight benchmark tests, GLM-4.6 outperformed models like Deepseek-V3.2-Exp, but still trails Claude Sonnet 4.5 in code generation.
GLM-4.6 is available through Z.ai, OpenRouter, HuggingFace, and ModelScope. Technical documentation can be found at docs.z.ai.
