Zhipu Founder Tang Jie: After GLM-5.2 Open-Source Release, It Will Gradually Narrow the Performance Gap with OpenAI and Anthropic

Odaily Planet Daily News: Tang Jie, founder of Zhipu AI, posted on the X platform stating that since the official open-source release of GLM-5.2, it has achieved leading results in multiple international authoritative evaluations and benchmark rankings. In the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index comprehensive assessment, GLM-5.2 scored 51 points, placing it in the same performance range as Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8; in the Code Arena front-end code generation head-to-head test, it ranked 2nd globally with an Elo score of 1595, and in the DesignArena design and code integration scenario, it scored 1360 points, ranking 1st.

Overall, Zhipu's GLM-5.2 continues to rank among the top globally in evaluations across multiple real-world scenarios such as front-end development, design generation, and software engineering, gradually narrowing the performance gap with frontier models from OpenAI and Anthropic, and will continue to push the upper limits of model capabilities.

Previously, in response to Musk's statement that Chinese large language models might reach the level of Anthropic's Fable by the first quarter of next year, Zhipu AI founder Tang Jie responded, saying it “would not take that long.”
