GLM-5.2 is Z.ai’s new open model, delivering SOTA performance across long-horizon coding, reasoning, and agentic tasks. With 744B parameters, 40B active parameters, and a 1M context window, it can now be run locally using Unsloth Dynamic GGUFs. GLM-5.2 is the strongest open model to date, performing on par with Claude 4.8 Opus, GPT-5.5, and Gemini 3.1 Pro across Artificial Analysis and many other benchmarks. Dynamic 1-bit
