At a glance
NUWA interpretation: inference budget can move capability estimates materially while safeguard adequacy remains a separate issue.
Research question
What does an independent public-access GLM-5.2 evaluation show across systemic-risk areas?
Design and assumptions
SaferAI evaluates four risk areas from the public API without developer cooperation, using public benchmarks and explicit budget variations.
Source findings
CyberGym reproduction rose from 36.6% at 2M tokens to 76.2% at 50M without a separate wall-clock limit.
The report explicitly declines an overall risk judgment from its benchmark subset.
NUWA interpretation
NUWA interpretation: inference budget can move capability estimates materially while safeguard adequacy remains a separate issue.
Limits and contrary evidence
Public-access and benchmark-selection limits restrict conclusions; cross-domain benchmark scores do not sum to overall risk.
Research and decision relevance
Model recommendation: retain budget, access regime and benchmark-specific safeguards before comparing with system-card figures.
