Ill tell you from my personal use glm 5.3 flash was better then deepseek 4.1 flash, also deepseek liked to yap in his reasoning traces soo fucking much, the yapping was fast but the task was so slow to complete...

Interesting, I have roughly the opposite experience regarding speed: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash gets stuff done way more quickly for me than GLM 5.3 Flash. (I was getting 300+ tokens/sec with DS vs ~100 with GLM in my testing.) I agree that GLM 5.3 Flash is a slightly better model, but for me at least, it's not a huge difference, and I'd rather have DeepSeek's speed.

I've only compared it in a few tool assisted design tasks, and deepseek performed significantly better (and faster). I haven't had them do enough coding to get a feel for that, though.

Yep, I think next month will be on that. It feels slightly better from a few days of use, and in our WIP benchmarking it scores way higher

DS v4.1 Flash is roughly equivalent. It's going to get some things right/better that GLM flash doesnt and vice versa.

They've got an image of their homegrown benchmark in the post that lists DS4.1.
