What people ask about GLM-4.6
Where does GLM-4.6 rank among AI models?
In the ROO3 AI Benchmark, ordered by the Epoch AI ECI, GLM-4.6 ranks #120 out of 267 models, with an ECI of 140.78. The ECI is a composite index that combines several hard benchmarks into a single scale. The position changes when a new model comes out, and the page is refreshed six times a day.
Where do the numbers on this page come from?
From the same three sources as the ranking, all openly licensed: Epoch AI (ECI and individual tests, CC BY 4.0), Arena (human-preference ELO, CC BY 4.0) and LiveBench (overall average, CC BY-SA 4.0). ROO3 does not measure any model. When the page shows a figure published by the maker itself, it appears in the written analysis, labeled as the maker's, and never enters the ranking.
