Ant open-sources Ling-3.0-flash-VL: an agentic VLM that sees, reasons and acts
Aiden_Tech_Ai · x · 2026-09-10
Ant Group's AntLingAGI team has open-sourced Ling-3.0-flash-VL in BF16 and FP8, with FP4 and INT4 versions coming soon.
Beyond visual recognition, the model understands images, video, documents and UIs, then reasons, searches and verifies along visual cues — it can also use tools, check results and deliver outcomes. Commenters highlight the shift from "AI can see" to "AI can do", demonstrated by its no-code editing demo where you point at something and tell it what to change.
