Pick GLM-4.7 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GPT-5.2 only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you need the larger 400K context window.

Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 18 shared benchmark results across 7 evidence categories; 4 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.

Why this result

GLM-4.7 has the cleaner BenchAlign overall profile here, landing at 61.16 versus 58.43. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.

GLM-4.7's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 75.4 against 70.6. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is FrontierMath v2 (Tiers 1-3), 2.439% to 40.700%. GPT-5.2 does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

GPT-5.2 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $1.75 input / $14.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for GLM-4.7. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. GPT-5.2 gives you the larger context window at 400K, compared with 200K for GLM-4.7.
