Alibaba rolls out a laptop-ready AI model and releases Qwen weights
The company said it is making its strongest Qwen model available through released weights, aiming to broaden use beyond data centers.
CNBC Markets reports that Alibaba has introduced a laptop-ready artificial intelligence model, positioning it for broader deployment by bringing the model to lower-power environments.
The outlet also reports that Alibaba released the weights for what it described as its most powerful Qwen model, a move that strengthens its open-weight approach.
By launching a model intended to run on laptops and sharing the corresponding weights, Alibaba is escalating its rivalry with Meta in the open-weight AI space, according to CNBC World.
