Alibaba released the model weights for Qwen3.8-Flash-Next as a preview of the upcoming Qwen4 architecture for developers to experiment with and evaluate. It’s a multimodal mixture-of-experts (MoE) model with a 125B-parameter main model supplemented by an additional 51B N-gram embeddings, with 6B parameters activated per token. It has a native 262,144-token context window, extensible to 1M tokens…

Alibaba released the open weights for Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B (Qwen3.8-Max), its largest open-weight model, bringing near-frontier capabilities to the open ecosystem. It has 2.4T total parameters with 95B activated per token. It’s a fine-grained mixture of experts (MoE) architecture with a hybrid of full and linear attention, a context window of up to one million tokens, and an output length of up to…

Frontier model pre-training has converged on mixture of experts (MoE), which is fundamentally changing what limits large-scale AI training. As compute per token falls, communication increasingly determines how efficiently models scale across thousands of GPUs. NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 set a world record for pre-training DeepSeek-V3 671B at 1,648 TFLOPs per GPU, showing how advances across the entire AI…
