Huawei Ascend 1
745B parameter AI model built for agentic intelligence and frontier-level reasoning.
GLM-5 is Zhipu AI's fifth-generation large language model, featuring a massive 745 billion total parameters and 44 billion active parameters in a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture. Developed as a spin-off from Tsinghua University, GLM-5 is engineered for agentic intelligence, frontier-level reasoning, and advanced coding capabilities. A standout feature is its full hardware independence, having been trained entirely on Huawei Ascend chips using the MindSpore framework. It serves as a direct, cost-effective challenger to global models like GPT-5 and Claude, with a strong focus on open-source availability and long-context processing through DeepSeek's sparse attention mechanism.
