Alibaba’s Qwen3.8-Max is coming with open weights next week
Alibaba’s Qwen team announced Qwen3.8-Max, calling it their most capable model yet.
Key points in the post:
- Open weights for Qwen3.8-Max will be released next week
- Qwen3.8-27B is also going open-weights
- The model is positioned as a 2.4T-parameter system for coding and long-horizon work
- Alibaba claims it can handle autonomous coding, production-quality deliverables, and long planning loops across domains such as chip design and e-commerce strategy
The reposted reaction says the model appears to have the formatting style of Sol and the reasoning laziness of Opus, but that the upcoming weight drop makes it hard to complain.
