On June 18, Elon Musk replied to a query on X regarding the timeline for China to reach Fable-level artificial intelligence, stating, “Maybe Q1.” The remark has drawn attention to the pace of China’s AI development.

Earlier, X user Teortaxes published an analysis noting that GLM 5.2 currently shows a lag of approximately seven months behind frontier models, placing it around the Opus 4.7-4.8 level.
