2 days ago there was a post here, presenting a LLM derived from Qwen. Qwen is basically Alibaba's counterpart to Meta's Llama.

ETA: Qwen on github

What that means for Chinese AI is not something I could say.

Qwen has been around for a while, but from what I can tell it didn't really stick out after it's initial hype. Alibaba claims it's open source when it isn't and people are naturally suspicious about it. User experiences also seem to be really mixed about it. And maybe the latest update caught up on the likes of Mixtra, but that's not breaking new grounds or makes China an AI powerhouse by any means.

Oh come on, tell me which LLM is truly open source?
