GPT-5.6 Terra is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 85 to 63. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
GPT-5.6 Terra's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 80.8 against 1.8. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is FrontierMath v2 (Tiers 1-3), 2.439% to 84.900%. GLM-4.7 does hit back in coding, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
GPT-5.6 Terra is also the more expensive model on tokens at $2.50 input / $15.00 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-5.6 Terra gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for GLM-4.7.
