Alibaba has officially unveiled the Qwen3 AI model series, signaling a major leap in its efforts to lead the AI revolution. Introduced by Alibaba Cloud, the Qwen3 launch includes eight new models, with parameter sizes ranging from 600 million to a staggering 235 billion, designed to rival — and potentially surpass — both Chinese and global competitors.
With the Alibaba Qwen3 AI series, the tech giant claims significant advancements in processing speed, multilingual fluency, code generation, and complex mathematical problem-solving. These Qwen3 features reflect Alibaba’s strategic ambition to set a new benchmark among Chinese AI models, intensifying competition with counterparts like Baidu’s Ernie X1 Turbo.
One of the most notable aspects of the Qwen3 capabilities is its enhanced versatility across languages and domains. This positions Alibaba to better serve industries needing advanced AI support in customer service, education, e-commerce, and financial services, both in China and globally.
The release of the Alibaba AI series comes amid an escalating battle for AI supremacy in China, with companies like Baidu, Tencent, and others aggressively launching next-gen models. However, with Qwen3’s superior performance metrics and open-source accessibility, Alibaba is aiming not just to compete but to lead the next phase of AI innovation.
As the global demand for powerful and adaptive AI models grows, Alibaba’s Qwen3 marks a bold statement: Chinese tech powerhouses are not just catching up — they are setting the pace.

"Notably, our smaller MoE model, Qwen3-30B-A3B, surpasses QwQ-32B, and even the compact Qwen3-4B rivals the performance of the much larger Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct," the company added in a blog post on the launch.
