Studying with GLM-5
GLM-5 can explain a topic at your level, quiz you, and walk through problems step by step. Used well, it is a patient tutor that is available at any hour. Used badly, it does your homework and teaches you nothing. Here is how to use it well.
Which modelGLM-5.3 FlashGLM-5.3 Flash is quick and can read a photo of a textbook page or a handwritten problem. For maths, physics or logic problems with many steps, turn on Think deeper or switch to GLM-5.3.
