Z.ai has released GLM-5.2, an MIT-licensed open-source AI model designed for long-running software engineering tasks, as the Chinese company seeks to challenge proprietary coding models on cost and performance. The company said GLM-5.2 ranked just behind Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.8 on FrontierSWE, a long-horizon coding benchmark, trailing it by 1%. Z.ai said the model also edged out OpenAI’s GPT-5.5 by 1%. Z.ai said GLM-5.2 supports a one-million-token context window with up to 131,072 output tokens, positioning it for agentic coding workflows that require reasoning across large codebases. The company is also making an efficiency argument. It said GLM-5.2 uses a technique called IndexShare, which reduces per-token compute by 2.9 times at a one-million-token context length. It also said changes to the model’s multi-token prediction layer increased the acceptance length for speculative decoding by up to 20%. The changes are aimed at a practical problem for developers: long-context coding

Microsoft has introduced usage-based billing for Copilot Cowork, which is now generally available. Microsoft unveiled Copilot Cowork in March, pitching it as an AI agent that’s capable of independently performing long-running, multi-step tasks — even when a user’s computer is off. It’s built on the same technology that underpins Anthropic’s Claude Cowork. Unlike Claude Cowork, which can interact directly with files and applications on a user’s computer, Copilot Cowork runs in Microsoft’s cloud environment and acts on documents held in a customer’s Microsoft 365 tenant. Copilot Cowork now comes with usage-based billing. Microsoft On Tuesday, Microsoft unveiled pricing details for Copilot Cowork, which involves usage-based billing in addition to a Microsoft 365 Copilot license ($30 per user each month for large enterprises before discounts, and $20 for Microsoft 365 Copilot for Business). The usage-based pricing is calculated from four components, according to Microsoft: “model

Unrestrained development of unsafe AI systems is leading to intolerable risks Stuart Russell is a computer scientist known for his contributions to AI and a new Guardian US columnist The AI company Anthropic has been making major headlines recently. Its trillion-dollar IPO plan and its blood feud with secretary of defense Pete Hegseth have attracted much attention, but two other events may be even more consequential. In early June, the company posted an article describing early signs of recursive self-improvement (RSI), a process in which an AI system devises ways to increase its own intelligence, leading to a greater ability to improve itself, and so on. Stuart Russell is a distinguished professor of computer science at University of California, Berkeley, the president of the International Association for Safe and Ethical Artificial Intelligence and a Guardian US columnist Continue reading...
