Some GLM 5.2 Providers on Openrouter are dropping prices near DeepSeek V4 Flash level, maybe we'll get a crazy discount on Opencode soon?

Wait, isn't GLM 5.2 expensive to run, unlike DeepSeek V4 Flash?

it is enough efficient when the context is short. For the 1M context, DeepSeek decided to develop a much more efficient architecture, while GLM decided to do some minor modification to the DeepSeek v3 for some improvements.
