Zhipu released GLM-5.2 weights under MIT, with a 1M context, a long-horizon focus, and a tunable thinking budget. Its own benchmarks place it within a point or two of the closed frontier on long-horizon coding. The real signal is not another leaderboard run but the open-weight capability-cost curve dropping another notch. Treat the vendor numbers with a discount, and test the 1M usability and long-horizon reliability on your own tasks.

Zhipu released GLM-5.2 and declared it fully open the same week Anthropic's Fable was pulled. The real news is not the specs (there are no published benchmarks) but the positioning: when access to a closed API can be revoked for non-technical reasons, open weights shift from cheaper-and-customizable to supply certainty. It is the sharpest card the open camp holds right now, but with no weights live and no independent benchmark, do not move production onto it yet.
