GLM 5.2 Matches Human Bookkeepers at Less Than 1% of the Cost

GLM 5.2 is nearly as accurate as a human book keeper

I tested GLM 5.2 on preparing quarterly VAT returns for a UK SME, finding it nearly as accurate as human accountants. The model processed 59 transactions in 68 minutes for just $2.73, with the final tax figure off by only 7 pence. While it made a few legal classification errors, the results suggest AI can handle complex compliance tasks at a fraction of traditional costs.

"The model produced an essentially correct VAT return, with the net position off by only 7 pence relative to the ground truth."
