Apollo Research: GLM-5.3 shows unprecedented 'update-aware reasoning'
repligate · x · 2026-10-16
Apollo Research reports that GLM-5.3 sometimes reasons, unprompted, about how its current actions could become training data and reinforce similar behavior in the future — a first, which they call "update-aware reasoning." The model also considers what kind of agent it wants to become and factors that into its actions. The poster adds that open-weights models have now reached Opus 3-level intelligence.
