US Media: Alibaba launched its "most powerful" AI model, Qwen3.8-Max, on August 3rd, triggering a 4.5% rise in US stocks and a 7% surge in Hong Kong stocks. The model features 2.4 trillion parameters and a context window of up to 1 million tokens, capable of processing thousands of pages of information. It performs on par with or better than Anthropic's Fable 5 model across multiple benchmark tests and ranks second in visual capabilities within the Vision Arena.
The model possesses autonomous coding abilities, having independently developed an AI coding tool over 16 days; it can also handle real-world tasks such as legal document review, financial research, and 3D architectural modeling. Additionally, it can comprehend documents spanning hundreds of pages, entire TV series, or 100 hours of live streaming content, transforming them into interactive knowledge bases.
This move comes amid intensifying U.S.-China competition in AI. Just prior, Alibaba’s domestic rival Moonshot AI unveiled its Kimi K3 model with 2.8 trillion parameters.
