Ox Alpha Model Likely Based on Zhipu GLM Series

AI summary iconSummary
On-chain news suggests that Ox Alpha's backend likely uses Zhipu's GLM series. A developer triggered an error through a faulty API call, exposing the path 'paas/v4/chat'—consistent with Zhipu’s system. The error formats and token usage align with GLM-5.3 and GLM-5V-Turbo. While Ox Alpha may be running a new GLM variant, it is unclear whether this is a known version or an unreleased model. New token listings often rely on similar backend architectures, and this case exhibits comparable patterns.
ME AI message, Dongcha Beating AI news: Ox Alpha’s identity is becoming harder to hide. Community developer Chetaslua sent a deliberately malformed API request to the model via OpenCode. The backend unexpectedly returned a Java stack trace containing “paas/v4/chat,” which directly matches Zhishu’s official API path. He then conducted a control experiment: multiple GLM models hosted by Zhishu all returned the exact same “1214 Incorrect role information” error. When the same GLM weights were hosted on DeepInfra, the error format changed. This is no longer just about the model “looking like” GLM—its backend also aligns with Zhishu’s. Previous model fingerprints also pointed to GLM: in 25 text tests, Ox Alpha’s token count consistently differed from GLM-5.3 by exactly 75 tokens; visual token consumption across four different videos matched GLM-5V-Turbo perfectly. It is now highly likely that Ox Alpha’s backend is operated by Zhishu and that the model itself is very likely a GLM-series model. However, whether it is a new version of GLM-5.3 or an unreleased model remains unconfirmed. (Source: MLion)
