Zhipu AI has launched GLM-5, a 744B parameter open-source model matching Claude Opus 4.5 in coding logic. Scoring 77.8% on SWE-bench and 62.0 on BrowseComp, it proves open-weights can outperform proprietary giants in agentic reasoning. This marks a systemic shift where complex system engineering no longer depends on exclusive Western APIs. The era of autonomous, high-efficiency AI agents for global infrastructure is now accessible to all. 🚀
