Security researchers told the Wall Street Journal that **Zhipu AI**'s `GLM-5.2` can match **Anthropic**'s `Mythos` in some bug-finding scenarios, according to reporting cited by multiple outlets. Semgrep benchmarked `GLM-5.2` ahead of Anthropic's `Claude Opus 4.8` in some tests, per reporting in the New York Post. OpenRouter, a model-access provider, ranks `GLM-5.2` among the top 10 most-used systems, the New York Post reports. Chinese firm **360 Security Technology** unveiled a bug-finding tool called `Tulongfeng`, which outlets say performs on par with `Mythos`. Reporting in NDTV notes that `GLM-5.2` is distributed as an open-weight model that users can download and modify.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks", "canonical_source": "https://letsdatascience.com/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks-2e10c2b3", "published_at": "2026-06-29 16:52:18+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-29 17:24:13.297851+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-safety", "ai-research", "ai-products"], "entities": ["Zhipu AI", "Anthropic", "GLM-5.2", "Mythos", "Claude Opus 4.8", "OpenRouter", "360 Security Technology", "Tulongfeng"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/chinese-ai-matches-anthropic-on-cybersecurity-tasks.jsonld"}}
