Speculation is swirling around the identity of anonymous model Ox Alpha. A prominent community member now confidently predicts it is GLM — likely the 5.3 vision variant or an even smaller/faster version — while preregistering the bet and admitting that if Ox Alpha turns out not to be a Chinese model (e.g., Grok, as some assert), many holders of this view would be proven wrong.
