Alibaba Reveals Qwen 3.8 With 2.4 Trillion Parameters and Open Weights

Alibaba has previewed Qwen3.8, a massive 2.4-trillion-parameter AI model built to compete with frontier systems. The company says it ranks among the world’s strongest AI models and will release open weights soon.

Details:

  • Qwen3.8-Max-Preview is already available through Alibaba’s Token Plan, Qoder and QoderWork. Preview costs 10% of standard credits while Alibaba improves it before the launch day

  • Alibaba says it improves on Qwen3.7-Max in coding, full stack development, data analysis, Office work and agent tasks. It’s Qwen’s first 1T+ multimodal model for imgs, vid and docs

  • With 2.4 trillion parameters, Qwen3.8 joins China’s multi-trillion-model race beside Moonshot’s 2.8T Kimi K3. Alibaba claims it ranks just behind Claude Fable 5

Size is just a part of the story. A frontier-level, multimodal Chinese model is going open-weight soon, raising pressure on closed AI leaders worldwide.

David Sacks Says OpenAI and Anthropic Form an AI Duopoly

David Sacks, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist and former White House AI and crypto czar, says OpenAI and Anthropic have formed an AI revenue duopoly and are seeking government help to crush their open-weight competition.

Details:

  • Sacks was responding to Dean Ball, who argued agencies could issue weakly justified soft-law warnings about Chinese models, creating enough FUD that regulated companies quietly stop using them

  • Sacks says this would weaponize regulatory uncertainty as a competitive tool. Policy, he argues, must rest on facts, logic and evidence—not manufactured doubt

  • His wider warning is that leading closed labs want government help to eliminate open-source competition. He says Silicon Valley must defend open competition

Ball says he was predicting this strategy, not endorsing it. Sacks says using manufactured fear would corrode the rule of law and invite wider abuse.

How to Use Gemini 3.1 Pro to Build Interactive Simulations in Minutes

If you can describe it, Gemini 3.1 Pro can probably simulate it. Whether you want to model physics, visualize data, or build small interactive tools, you can do it from a single prompt.

  1. Launch Gemini 3.1 Pro

    Go to the Gemini homepage, sign in, and the Gemini 3.1 Pro chat interface will appear so you can work in the latest environment.

  2. Pick right model

    From the model selector, choose what fits your task:

    • Gemini 3.1 Pro for most reasoning and interactive projects

    • DeepThink for heavy logic and complex simulations (confirm availability in your region)

  3. Decide what type of simulation

    Before prompting, quickly define:

    • What system you want to simulate

    • What the user can change (inputs, sliders, buttons)

    • What they should see (graphs, visuals, states, results)

  4. Write clear prompt

    In the chat box, describe the goal, controls, and visuals.

    For example:

    "Build a 3D simulation of a solar system with realistic orbital mechanics"

  5. Run and inspect output

    Preview or run the generated simulation, try all controls, and quickly check if it behaves as intended and is easy to use.

  6. Use Explain to understand

    Tap on Explain or ask follow ups like:

    • "Summarize how the main logic works in simple terms."

    • "Show me where the user inputs change the variables."

    Use this to learn the structure and request small tweaks.

Note: Clearly spell out inputs, outputs, target audience, and platform in your prompt so Gemini 3.1 Pro can generate cleaner, more useful results.

AI Art Spotlight

Create Your Own Photo Like This Using the Prompt Below:

Create a 1:1 cinematic product poster (1080×1080) of [BRAND & PRODUCT], centered and fully visible, floating against a clean background inspired by the brand’s core color palette.

The product must remain intact and uncut, but be conceptually split by design:
• One half is photorealistic, showcasing accurate materials, textures, reflections, buttons, surfaces, and premium build quality
• The other half transforms seamlessly into flat digital elements that represent the brand’s ecosystem — UI fragments, abstract tech shapes, interface cards, schematic overlays, soft holographic effects, or minimal glitch-style geometry

Lighting:
Cinematic, high-end studio lighting with controlled highlights and soft shadows, emphasizing form and depth.

Typography:
Bold double-exposure style text displaying the product or brand name, integrated cleanly into the composition.
Official logo placed subtly and professionally in one corner.
