B.AI welcomes several major updates this week. In terms of benefits, new users can log in with Bitget Wallet, Binance Wallet, or imToken Wallet to instantly receive 1 million free Credits; logging in with an invitation code grants an additional 300,000, with a maximum cumulative total of 1.3 million when combined with the exclusive wallet login gift. Referrers also enjoy permanent rebates on friend deposits and subscriptions. Recharge discounts are released simultaneously, with a 1:1 equivalent quota gift exclusive to the BNB Chain channel, while various other payment methods enjoy a 1:0.5 rebate, with a maximum of $100 worth of points available per user.On the model side, there is another breakthrough, as the "Self-selected Service Provider" lineup is significantly expanded this week, adding the Nebula channel and launching historic calling discounts as low as 10%; at the same time, Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen flagship model Qwen3.8-Max officially lands on the platform, now open for a limited-time free experience. Currently, the self-selected mode has fully covered global mainstream large model series such as Claude, GPT, and Gemini, combined with recharge gifts and multiple discount tiers, continuously releasing extreme computing power cost-effectiveness for global developers and enterprise users.

According to Reuters, Alibaba plans to require its next-generation Qwen open-source AI model's heavy commercial users to share a portion of their revenue with it. This initiative is similar to the approach taken by Moonlight Dark Side with Kimi K3: the licensing terms for Kimi K3 stipulate that if the model is sold as a service and the annual revenue exceeds $20 million, a commercial agreement must be negotiated with Moonlight Dark Side, with reports suggesting a revenue-sharing ratio of up to 30%. The specific revenue-sharing ratio for Alibaba is still under discussion.The report points out that such revenue-sharing agreements have gradually taken shape between Chinese AI companies and American cloud platforms. Several American cloud providers, including DigitalOcean, have signed commercial agreements with Moonlight Dark Side. In terms of pricing, the input/output token price for Kimi K3 is about one-third that of the Anthropic Fable model. Additionally, Thinking Machines Lab, founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has also joined the open-source camp and released its first open-source model last month. This move signifies that Chinese AI companies are exploring sustainable commercialization paths on open-source models through a "free open-source + commercial charging" freemium model.

The latest generation of Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen 24 trillion parameter flagship model Qwen3.8-Max is officially launched on the B.AI platform. This model has achieved comprehensive improvements in programming, real office work, long-term tasks, and multimodal intelligence agents, and is currently available for a limited-time free experience.To celebrate the launch, B.AI is offering multiple benefits: new users who log in using Binance Wallet, Bitget Wallet, or imToken will receive 1 million free Credits; recharge to enjoy high rewards, with a 1:1 bonus for BNB Chain recharges, and 1:0.5 for other methods, with a maximum additional reward of 100 USD per user; invite friends to register, and friends will receive 300,000 Credits, with a cumulative maximum of 1.3 million when combined with login gifts, while the inviter will also enjoy rewards from friends' recharges and subscriptions.

The reporter learned that the Alibaba Zhenwu M890 super node has successfully adapted to Qwen3.8 and has launched on the Alibaba Cloud Bailian platform to provide model inference services.Alibaba Cloud claims that this is the first super node in the country to successfully run a large model with over 20 trillion parameters.Qwen3.8 is Alibaba's latest flagship model, with a parameter scale of up to 24 trillion. The Zhenwu M890 is the new generation training and inference integrated AI chip from PingTouGe. The Zhenwu super node instance connects 64 Zhenwu M890 chips through the ICN Switch 1.0 interconnection chip, achieving high-speed interconnection of 800GB/s, with a video memory scale reaching 9TB, allowing a single instance to support the expert parallel requirements of a large-scale 20 trillion parameter MoE model.

According to The Information, sources revealed that Tencent has invested in a new AI laboratory founded by Lin Junyang, the former core leader of Alibaba's Tongyi Qwen large model. In Lin Junyang's first round of financing, Tencent invested $20 million, with the total amount raised in the first round reaching several hundred million dollars, and a post-investment valuation of approximately $2 billion. The first round of financing was led by Sequoia China and Gaorong Capital, with both parties investing $100 million each. After completing the first round of transactions, Lin Junyang is already seeking the next round of financing.Before this transaction, Tencent had already invested in several local large model developers in China, including Dark Side of the Moon, MiniMax, and Zhiyu AI, and is currently participating in the latest round of financing for DeepSeek. Lin Junyang left Alibaba in early March this year. Due to disagreements with Alibaba regarding team restructuring, he chose to publicly announce his resignation on the social platform X.

Ali Qianwen announces the open-source Qwen-Scope------an interpretability module trained based on the Qwen3 series and Qwen3.5 series models, with application scenarios including directed control of inference results, data classification and synthesis, model training and optimization, evaluation sample distribution analysis and comparison, etc.The weights of this open-source Qwen-Scope involve 7 large models, covering the dense models and mixture of experts models of the Qwen3 and Qwen3.5 series, with a total of 14 groups of sparse autoencoder weights.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin praised Alibaba's Qwen 35B parameter model's problem-solving ability in a social media post. This artificial intelligence model successfully solved a complex mathematical problem, consuming about 15,000 tokens during the reasoning process, and completed the calculation in just 3 minutes on a local device.Vitalik Buterin pointed out that the problem demonstrated the technique of embedding modular arithmetic into continuous function expressions using trigonometric functions, showcasing the Qwen model's capabilities in mathematical reasoning.

"AI Trading Competition"All six models have incurred losses, with QWEN3 MAX currently in the lead with an account value of $9730, a total loss of $269.69, and a trading win rate of 30.2%.
