GLM vs. OpenLLaMA
LLM Comparison
GLM
Overview
GLM is Z.ai's open-weight model family for reasoning, coding, agents, and long-horizon work. GLM-5.2 is the current generation with a one-million-token context window.
The GLM family began with bilingual pretrained models and evolved through the ChatGLM and GLM-4 generations. GLM-5 scaled the mixture-of-experts architecture to 744B total parameters with 40B active parameters. GLM-5.2, released in June 2026, adds a stable one-million-token context window, stronger long-horizon coding and agent performance, adjustable reasoning effort, and efficiency improvements for sparse attention. Its weights are available under the MIT license.
Initial release: 2022-08-04
Current generation: GLM-5.2

OpenLLaMA
Overview
OpenLLaMA is an effort from OpenLM Research to offer a non-gated version of LLaMa that can be used both for research and commercial applications. As of June 2023, the model is still training, with 3B, 7B, and 13B parameter models available.
Initial release: 2023-04-28
