How to pronounce ChatGLM

ChatGLM is most commonly pronounced "chat jee ell em" (/ˌtʃæt dʒiː ɛl ˈɛm/). This is the widely-used reading among engineers, though edge cases exist.

Zhipu AI / Tsinghua KEG open bilingual model series. Name = "Chat" + GLM, where GLM is an initialism for "General Language Model" spoken letter-by-letter: chat-G-L-M, NOT read as a word "glim". STRESS: chat-jee-ell-EM (final letter takes the beat). Bare "GLM" is already in the dict; this is the searched product name.

Pronouncing project and product names correctly avoids the small but persistent friction of being gently corrected during standups, conference Q&As, and team calls. Hearing the word a few times locks in the right reading better than reading IPA ever will.
