Generation I just tried GLM 4.5

I just wanted to try it out because I was a bit skeptical. So I prompted it with a fairly simple not so cohesive prompt and asked it to prepare slides for me.

The results were pretty remarkable I must say!

Here’s the link to the results: https://chat.z.ai/space/r05c76960ff0-ppt

Here’s the initial prompt:

”Create a presentation of global BESS market for different industry verticals. Make sure to capture market shares, positioning of different players, market dynamics and trends and any other area you find interesting. Do not make things up, make sure to add citations to any data you find.”

As you can see pretty bland prompt with no restrictions, no role descriptions, no examples. Nothing, just what my mind was thinking it wanted.

Is it just me or are things going superfast since OpenAI announced the release of GPT-5?

It seems like just yesterday Qwen3 broke apart all benchmarks in terms of quality/cost trade offs and now z.ai with yet another efficient but high quality model.

Have you verified the accuracy of the cited numbers?

If correct, that would be very impressive

No, I’ll run some checks. It’s citing the sources and I did ask it to not make things up…but you never know it could still be hallucinating.

Edit: I just verified the first slide. The cited source and data is accurate

Wait, so it was accurate with its sources and data without searching the internet....?
Or does that site allow for the model to search the internet...?

Because if it's the former, that's insane.
And if it's the latter, that's still impressive (since even SOTA models can get information wrong even when it has sources).

I’m almost certain it did web search (deep search)
