Alibaba releases Qwen3.5 open-weights vision-language model family with MoE architecture across eight sizes
Alibaba released the Qwen3.5 family of eight open-weights vision-language models ranging from 0.8B to 397B parameters, built on a mixture-of-experts architecture with mixed attention and Gated DeltaNet layers. The flagship Qwen3.5-397B-A17B outperforms GPT-5.2, Claude 4.5 Opus, and Gemini-3 Pro on 28 of 44 vision benchmarks, while the 9B model surpasses OpenAI's gpt-oss-120B on most language tasks. Open weights are available under Apache 2.0, with hosted agentic variants (Qwen3.5-Plus, Qwen3.5-Flash) available via Alibaba Cloud. The release is notable for strong small-model efficiency and comes amid reported team departures following the Qwen3 rollout.
Alibaba's Qwen3.7-Max positions as top Chinese LLM with closed weights and agentic focus
Alibaba released Qwen3.7-Max, a closed-weights proprietary model targeting long-running agentic tasks like coding and scientific discovery, with a 1M-token context window and 208 tokens/second output speed. The model ranks fifth to seventh on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, trailing leading U.S. models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google but claiming the lowest hallucination rate among frontier models tested—partly by declining to answer over half of prompts. Alibaba's training approach separates task, agentic harness, and verifier components to prevent overfitting to specific setups. The release continues Alibaba's strategic shift from open to closed weights for top-tier models, with leadership changes in the Qwen team suggesting a revenue-focused pivot.
