BlockBeats News, June 18th - A netizen asked on social media: "When is the Chinese large-scale model expected to reach Anthropic's Fable level? Zhitu's GLM-5.2 has undoubtedly narrowed the gap." Tesla CEO Elon Musk responded, "Possibly in Q1 2027."

On June 15th, Zhitu announced the official launch and open-sourcing of the new generation flagship large-scale model GLM-5.2. Unlike previous models that focused on real-time question-answering capabilities, GLM-5.2 is dedicated to "long-range tasks" - enabling AI to work continuously for hours like a human and independently complete a large-scale project. In the frontend development evaluation system Code Arena, with participation from millions of users worldwide in blind tests, the model ranked first among globally available models.

Regarding Musk's remarks, some AI industry insiders believe that Musk's prediction is relatively conservative, and the time gap in the level of models between China and the U.S. may be less than 7 months. Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, has also stated that Chinese artificial intelligence models may be "just a few months away" from catching up with overseas models in terms of capabilities.
