Z.ai (GLM family) IPO in Hong Kong on Jan 8, 2026, aiming to raise $560M at HK$4.35B, marking it as the "first AI-native LLM company" public listing. The IPO highlights GLM-4.7 as a starting point. Meta AI acquired Manus for approximately $4–5B, with Manus achieving $100M ARR in 8–9 months, illustrating the value of application-layer differentiation over proprietary models. Manus focuses on agentic architecture, context engineering, and general primitives like code execution and browser control, emphasizing "agent habitats" as a competitive moat. Discussions around Claude Code highlight skepticism about "vibe coding," advocating for disciplined, framework-like AI-assisted programming practices.
