Xing4.0 from China Telecom has been quietly trending on Hugging Face since last week. Key specs: a 29B/4B MoE model trained entirely on Huawei Ascend 910C with MindSpore (no NVIDIA GPUs), 256K context (up to 512K), released under Apache 2.0 — another concrete example of an open model trained on a domestic Chinese compute stack.
