Hands-on with Tencent Hunyuan Hy4: Execution enters top-tier open source
HeyAmit_ · x · 2026-08-30
The author tested Tencent Hunyuan's Hy4 preview within WorkBuddyAI. The model features 770B total parameters, 49B active, and 1M+ token context. The standout feature was execution over answers: it breaks down tasks, works across multiple tools, handles long context, writes code, and verifies work. In Tencent's blind test of 203 engineering tasks, Hy4 preview scored 2.99/4, outperforming GLM 5.3 and Kimi K3. It feels more like an agent than a chatbot.
