The Qwen4 lineup is about to launch, including Qwen4-Max, Qwen4-Plus, Qwen4-Flash and the much-anticipated Qwen4-27B — a size that runs locally on machines like a MacStudio. At the event it was also said future Qwen models will scale to 5-10T parameters. The same day is expected to bring GPT-6-Sol, Opus 5.5 and Meta Connect.
