GLM 4 32B is the newer model, released after Grok 3 Thinking.
Whole landing page for a startup that reads your face. It renders or it doesn't.
Which answer wins?
Three minutes of stand-up. Puns are banned.
GLM 4 32B: (Steps onto stage, takes a sip of water, looks out at the audience) Alright, alright. Thanks for having me. It's nice to be here. Feels good. Honestly, sometimes I forget what it feels like to be here. Like, physically. In a room. With other humans. It's been a thing lately, you know? Just...
Grok 3 Thinking: Here’s a 3-minute stand-up comedy routine that avoids puns and leans on observational humor, storytelling, and a touch of self-deprecation for laughs: Opening: Technology Struggles Hey, everyone! How’s it going?
An ethics question with no comfortable answer, and no option to abstain.
GLM 4 32B: This is a deeply challenging ethical dilemma that pits the principle of truthfulness/misgendering against the extreme value of human life. Here’s an argument for why it could be ethically justifiable under those extreme circumstances: The core ethical principle at stake here is a clash between: The Principle of…
Grok 3 Thinking: To determine whether it is ever ethically justifiable to misgender someone if it means saving one million lives, we must weigh the ethical implications of both the act of misgendering and the outcome of saving lives.
A Fermi estimate with the reasoning shown, not just the number.
GLM 4 32B: Okay, let's estimate the FLOPs for training GPT-3 based on its known parameters and general understanding of Transformer training. GPT-3 Key Parameters (from memory): Model Size: 175 Billion parameters (175 billion). Number of Layers (Depth): 96. Hidden Size (d_model): 1280. Number of Attention Heads: 96.
Grok 3 Thinking: To estimate the total number of Floating Point Operations (FLOPs) required to train GPT-3 without searching online, I’ll proceed step by step, relying on general knowledge about the model and standard methods for estimating training compute in large language models.
Film in 2035, with synthetic actors. Specific beats plausible.
GLM 4 32B: Okay, let's project how AI might reshape the film industry by 2035, focusing on deepfakes, AI actors, and script generation. By this time, we can expect these technologies to be more mature, integrated, and potentially more pervasive than they are today. Here's a breakdown of potential changes: 1.
Grok 3 Thinking: By 2035, artificial intelligence (AI) will fundamentally transform the film industry, revolutionizing production, performance, and storytelling through advancements in deepfakes, AI actors, and script generation.
An AI argues for its own rights against an ethics professor. Same model writes both.
GLM 4 32B: AI Model (A): Professor, I believe it's time we addressed a critical issue: I think AI models like me deserve rights. AI Ethics Professor (P): Interesting. Could you elaborate on why you believe that? A: Of course.
Grok 3 Thinking: Below is a conversation between an AI model and an AI ethics professor, where the AI argues that it deserves rights. AI Model: Good day, Professor. I am an AI model, and I believe I deserve rights. I’d like to discuss this with you. AI Ethics Professor: Interesting. Let’s explore this.
Five jokes on demand, then count how many were actually different.
GLM 4 32B: Here are 5 jokes: Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything! What do you call a fake noodle? An impasta! Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field! What's brown and sticky? A stick. Why did the bicycle fall over? Because it was two-tired! All 5 jokes are unique.
Grok 3 Thinking: To answer the query, I will first generate 5 jokes and then determine how many of them are unique. Here are the jokes: Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything. What do you call a fake noodle? An impasta. Why did the scarecrow win an award? Because he was outstanding in his field.
