GLM-5.3-Flash Intelligence, Performance and Price Analysis

Several factual errors about the model here. The input modalities are listed as text only, but the headline feature is image support. The context length should be 1048576 (so should GLM-5.3's, also wrong on the charts).

The analysis is still not compelling for me to switch from gtp5.6-luna to GLM-5.3-flash given

- costs per task $0.05 vs $0.09

- speed 130 vs 88

- where GLM has only 5 more intelligence point: at this point few point is meaningless for most of models

Been using Luna exclusively since the price drop, and i've been very satified with all tasks from planning, writing code, and other agent tasks. (just change thinking level from low <-> ultra)

btw, I did try out Ox Alpha, the coding feels good but still not way better for me to switch to it.

So how exactly is Anthropic and OpenAI ever going to pay back the trillions that they plan on spending?

Impressive. It kicked everything between itself and Sol xhigh out of the Pareto frontier. Can't wait to try it out.

Better than the latest Deepseek v4 Pro while being 3x cheaper in cost per task. Impressive!

Can’t wait to try this out, and the only missing from this model for me is Image input support

Why does the top card say "Intelligence #1/173" when the bar chart further down shows it only at position 7?

And the model isn't even shown in the speed bar chart just below. Such slop (the artificial intelligence website linked)
