Citing tphuang: Alibaba CEO Eddie Wu said the Qwen team has made progress on RSI (recursive self-improvement) and plans a 5-10T parameter model, with reasoning expected to consume significantly more data going forward (bullish for memory).
Additional roadmap details:
- Qwen-4 will train on a new model architecture.
- Qwen-4.5 and Qwen-5 are moving steadily.
- Qwen-Image-3.1 will be unveiled, along with Happy Shrimp 1.1 and HappOyster 2.0 Preview (the poster quips about all the "happy creature" model names).
