The release includes GLM-4.6V (106B) for cloud scenarios and GLM-4.6V-Flash (9B) for local deployment, both scaling context to 128k tokens. The model achieves SOTA performance on benchmarks including MMBench, MathVista, and OCRBench among open-source models of comparable scale.written, reviewed, cited
- GLM-4.6V accepts images and documents directly as tool parameters without converting them to text first.
