Qwen3.8-Max has been announced and is slated for open-source release next week, marking the first open-source model in the Qwen Max series. It features a massive 2.4 trillion total parameters and 95B activated parameters.
The model focuses on long-cycle autonomous work and self-evolution, showcasing impressive results in extreme tests:
- Autonomous Coding: Ran completely autonomously for 16 days in the oh-my-cli project.
- Beating Humans: Autonomously built and tuned ensemble models for an e-commerce multimodal intent recognition competition, beating 87% of human teams.
- Simulated E-commerce: Navigated real-world market fluctuations and fraud traps to achieve a 4.16x return on investment.
- Research Reproduction: Spent 5 days writing 7,600 lines of code to reproduce a recent paper, designing 18 improvements to beat the original benchmark.
Additionally, it supports processing 100+ hour videos and features a visual feedback loop, allowing it to review its own generated UI layouts and autonomously correct errors.
