After the Qwen Exodus last year and new management took over launching more closed model APIs, there was some real doubt as to whether or not this leading open models lab would continue to release relevant models.That doubt is now gone. Qwen 3.8 Max is a MONSTER 2.4T model that would have been the top open model in the world but for the Kimi K3 release we already covered.Qwen offers them on API for $2 input/$6 output per million tokens, but they have promised to open-weight both models.Key Capabilities & Breakthrough HighlightsAutonomous Long-Horizon Coding:10+ Days Unattended Coding: Built a self-evolving coding harness from scratch over a multi-week autonomous run.Autonomous AI Research: Rebuilt a complete paper’s pipeline (Unified Data Selection for LLM Reasoning) from scratch, then autonomously ran an iterative research loop over 125 hours to invent a new data selection method beating the original paper’s benchmark by +2.71 points.Competitive Data Science: Competed against 526 human teams in the WWW2025 Multimodal Dialogue Intent Recognition Challenge, placing in the top 13% (outperforming 87% of human teams) within 24 hours.Autonomous Hardware & Chip Design:Executed a complete silicon design flow (GCD/RSA cryptographic accelerator) from RTL editing to simulation, synthesis, and physical layout.Reduced gate count from 8,298 to 678 gates while achieving an 81% die area reduction and meeting physical timing closure at 500 MHz.Deep Real-World Work & Operations:Demonstrated production-grade outputs across hundreds of professional workflows (e.g., corporate legal reviews, …
