Jakarta, INTI – Chinese technology company Alibaba has officially launched its latest artificial intelligence (AI) model, Qwen 2.5 Max, precisely on the Lunar New Year. This AI model is an upgrade from Qwen 2.5, which was released in September 2024.
Compared to its predecessor, Qwen 2.5 Max has significant improvements, particularly in the number of tokens used for training. This model has been trained with over 20 trillion tokens, an increase from the 18 trillion tokens in the previous version. With a larger number of tokens, Alibaba claims that Qwen 2.5 Max outperforms other AI models, such as DeepSeek-V3, OpenAI’s GPT-4o, and Meta’s Llama-3.1-405B.
According to an announcement posted via Alibaba Cloud’s official WeChat account, Qwen 2.5 Max has demonstrated superiority across several key benchmark platforms, including:
The launch of Qwen 2.5 Max coincides with the rising competition in the AI industry, particularly with DeepSeek, an open-source AI model from China that has gained global attention. DeepSeek is known for its innovative development approach, leveraging open-source technology that allows multiple parties to contribute to its advancement.
DeepSeek emerged amid U.S. trade sanctions against China, restricting the shipment of AI chips to the country. To overcome these challenges, AI companies in China, including DeepSeek, have adopted a resource-sharing strategy and a collaborative approach to accelerate their AI model development. Interestingly, despite being developed with a much smaller budget compared to ChatGPT, DeepSeek remains competitive against AI models from major companies like Alibaba and ByteDance.
Currently, Qwen does not have a standalone application like ChatGPT but can be accessed via chat.qwenlm.ai. Here’s how to use this AI model:
Additionally, Qwen 2.5 offers AI-powered image and video generation features:
The launch of Qwen 2.5 Max marks Alibaba’s strategic move to strengthen its position in the global AI industry. With superior performance across various benchmarks and a larger training dataset, this model is poised to compete with AI models from OpenAI, DeepSeek, and Meta.
However, competition in the AI industry is becoming increasingly fierce, especially with DeepSeek offering more affordable and efficient AI solutions. Moving forward, innovation and efficiency in AI development will be key factors in winning the artificial intelligence race.
