As the frontier of foundation models pushes toward ever-larger parameter counts and ever-longer context windows, the question is no longer just how much we can scale, but how efficiently we can do so. Sustainable progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI) that benefits everyone demands architectural innovation. Today, we are sharing a concrete step in that direction: Qwen3.8-Flash-Next. This experimental preview of the architecture that will underpin Qwen4 is built around a fundamental rethinking of how the core components of modern large language models (LLMs) interact at scale. The first open-weight release under this architecture is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, which introduces: For…
