Qwen3.8-Max Weights Released with Commercial Revenue Caps
cedric_chee · x · 2026-08-13
Tongyi Qwen has released the weights for Qwen3.8-Max. The model uses an MIT-style license but incorporates specific commercial restrictions.
While permissive for most startups and commercial products, it sets clear thresholds for large AI infrastructure or coding-assistant businesses: if monthly active users exceed 100 million or monthly revenue surpasses $20 million, displaying the model name becomes mandatory.
