Mystery Model Ox Alpha Review: Near-Fable Performance, Unique Vision/Logic Profile
Afinetheorem · x · 2026-08-22
Initial evaluation of the mystery model Ox Alpha:
- Positioning: Not quite at Fable or Sol level, but very close.
- Connections: Seems related to prior Zhipu GLM training (which is open source), but has a distinct post-training style.
- Performance: Uncorrelated with existing models on vision/logic benchmarks (though performs worse than Spark 1.2/Gemini/Fable).
- Focus: Shows signs of heavy post-training on computer tasks, though fails some straightforward science literature queries.
