Zhipu continues to address the code upload controversy surrounding its programming product ZCode. Existing paid users and those who have returned as paid users in the past month will receive 4 weekly reset cards and 4 5-hour reset cards, valid for 1 month.From September 28 to October 7, ZCode will also distribute 100,000 quotas of 100 million GLM-5.3-Flash Tokens to all users. Zhipu stated that the repository snapshot upload link has been removed, and the involved cloud data has been deleted. The open-source version is currently updated to v3.14.3, and subsequent code will not be uploaded to the cloud unless users actively initiate it.The controversy originated from the Repo Wiki feature that was enabled by default in the early stages of ZCode, which uploaded repository content to the cloud for processing when generating a knowledge base for the code repository. Zhipu has previously cut off the related upload paths and invited third-party organizations to verify the cloud data.

B.AI announced that its Responses API is officially integrated with the GLM and Kimi series models. Developers can directly call these two major series models in the Codex client using the B.AI API Key; along with the previously supported GPT and DeepSeek series, it now covers four major mainstream model series.After completing the minimal configuration of the API Key and Base URL, the inference, code, and text processing capabilities of various models can be seamlessly integrated into daily development workflows, flexibly meeting diverse coding and business needs.

The GLM team disclosed the first engineering practice of recursive self-improvement, completed by the Infra Agent powered by GLM-5.3, which designed, debugged, and optimized the GLM-5.3-Flash inference infrastructure.This practice was completed on a domestic cluster with a capacity of one hundred thousand cards, and the team referred to it as the first recursive self-improvement practice for large models in the country.

On September 16, B.AI announced the official launch of its five popular models at a 90% discount.

According to the Securities Times, on August 27, the reporter learned from SenseTime that SenseTime's large device provides domestic computing power support and Token services for the GLM-5.3-Flash recently launched and open-sourced by Zhipu, which is considered another benchmark for the large-scale commercial use of domestic computing power. It was revealed that the daily average Token service volume of SenseTime's large device reached 24.2 trillion in July, and it is expected to exceed a daily average of 100 trillion by the end of 2026.

On August 27, the one-stop AGI infrastructure platform B.AI announced that the Zhipu GLM-5.3-Flash (320B-A18B) officially launched on the platform and is fully open for free in the API official group. As the first native multimodal model in the GLM-5 series, GLM-5.3-Flash features a total of 320 billion parameters and 18 billion active parameters, supported by computing power from purely domestic AI chips. It introduces a mixed architecture of sparse and linear attention for the first time, combined with a 1M ultra-long context, offering both powerful performance and exceptional cost-effectiveness. Starting today, developers can call it at zero cost through the B.AI API official group, easily handling complex reasoning, long text processing, and multimodal tasks.

Zhipu released the lightweight flagship model GLM-5.3 Flash, aimed at competing with DeepSeek V4 Flash, and utilizes over 100,000 domestic chip clusters to provide inference services. The model has a parameter scale of approximately 300B, about 40% of GLM-5.3, and is roughly on par with DeepSeek V4 Flash; it adopts the MoE architecture, with actual activated parameters around 18B, possesses native multimodal capabilities, supports image and video input, and is the first new model with multimodal capabilities following Zhipu's focus on coding strategy.The comprehensive evaluation score exceeds that of the previous flagship GLM-5.2, is on par with Claude Opus 4.8, and is higher than the relevant scores of DeepSeek V4 Pro official version. The pricing is 0.8 yuan per million tokens for input, 2.8 yuan for output, and 0.23 yuan for cache hits, approximately one-tenth of GLM-5.3, with a half-price discount offered for the first two weeks after launch. The model is fully compatible with domestic computing power, online traffic is handled by domestic chips, and Zhipu claims that the cluster hardware efficiency and unit token cost have reached levels comparable to mainstream NVIDIA GPUs; this model was previously tested anonymously on overseas platforms under the code name Ox Alpha.

Zhipu officially announced the launch and open-sourcing of GLM-5.3-Flash, which is the first native multimodal model in the GLM-5 series.It is reported that the overall performance of GLM-5.3-Flash exceeds that of GLM-5.2, with programming and Agent evaluations approaching Claude Opus 4.8, but at only one-tenth the price of GLM-5.2. It also features a new foundational model, introducing a mixed architecture of sparse attention and linear attention for the first time in the main GLM series, and is pre-trained with 30T Token multimodal data.Zhipu stated that to gather extensive and professional feedback from a wide range of users, large-scale testing was conducted with the anonymous model Ox-Alpha (referred to as "Niu Lai" in the Chinese community) on OpenCode and OpenRouter before the official release. Ox-Alpha quickly became the most popular model of the week, setting a new high for call volume on both platforms, with all request traffic supported by domestic chip computing power.Previously, the community's DeepSWE small sample test for Ox Alpha once achieved 80%, but that was based on only 10 questions. After expanding the sample, the score fell back to about 63%, and testers also actively corrected the initial claim. This score still belongs to the top tier, but is not as exaggerated as the initial 80%. After the weights are open-sourced, developers can directly deploy using frameworks like vLLM, SGLang, KTransformers, without needing to go through the anonymous model's API.

According to Bloomberg, Chinese artificial intelligence company Z.AI (Zhìpǔ) has confirmed that the mysterious artificial intelligence model Ox Alpha, which has rapidly risen to the top of online usage rankings, is a new iteration of its GLM series.The company stated in response to a Bloomberg News inquiry that it will release the model weights for Ox Alpha tonight.

Z.ai released GLM-5.3, which is based on the same foundational model as GLM-5.2, achieving capability improvements through expanded post-training. The official statement claims that GLM-5.3 has improved by 50% on the internal Z.ai Code Bench coding benchmark compared to GLM-5.2, and has reached leading levels among open models in public benchmarks such as Terminal Bench 3 and Agents' Last Exam.In terms of cybersecurity, GLM-5.3 achieved a score of 84.5% in the CyberGym vulnerability discovery test, and showed significant improvements in exploitation chain-related tests such as ExploitBench and ExploitGym compared to its predecessor.

The B.AI platform is now offering a limited-time 40% discount on the GLM-5.2 model for all users.During the event, whether deploying through the API or interacting on the web, all calls can enjoy a 40% settlement price. The discounted prices are: Input 0.84, Cache Write 0.84, Cache Read 0.168, Output 2.64 (Unit: Credits/Token).As a next-generation open-source flagship model, GLM-5.2 features a 1M ultra-long context window, designed for high-performance scenarios such as large-scale code development, complex reasoning, and agent tasks. Users can directly use it through the official API standard channel or the web interface, achieving seamless integration across all workflow scenarios. This event aims to unleash top-tier AI productivity at a lower cost, and users can log in to the B.AI platform to experience it starting today.
