GLM 4.7 just became the #1 open-source model—and the data proves it. Sarah Chieng, Head of DevX at Cerebras, sat down with Anastasios Angelopoulos, co-founder and CEO of LM Arena, to break down what 8,000+ developer votes reveal about GLM 4.7's real-world performance against closed-source giants like Claude Opus 4.5 and Gemini Pro. Key Takeaways: → GLM 4.7 ranks #18 on LM Arena's overall leaderboard → In math & coding, it's within 30 points of Gemini Pro (the top performer) → Massive adoption among developers, researchers, and technical professionals → An "underrated" model that's closing the gap with frontier closed-source models Why does this matter? For technical use cases—multi-turn coding, math, instruction following—you can now get near-frontier performance with an open-source model at a fraction of the cost and blazing speed.
