Congrats to @Zai_org on GLM-5.3. It massively beats every American open model: Nemotron, Laguna, Inkling. It's not close.
GLM-5.3 uses the same base model as GLM-5.2; every gain came from post-training. If America keeps going down the "Nemotron Committee" path instead of fostering real competition, it will keep losing.
It puts a concrete stake in the open-weights comparison: if post-training alone produced the jump, the gap between American and Chinese open models is a process gap rather than a compute gap.
