Alibaba has launched its latest AI model, Qwen 2.5-Max, and claims it surpasses DeepSeek-V3, OpenAI’s GPT-4o, and Meta’s Llama-3.1-405B.
The announcement came on the first day of the Lunar New Year, a rare timing for major product releases in China.
This suggests growing pressure on Chinese tech firms to compete with the rapid rise of DeepSeek AI in recent weeks.
Key Highlights:
- Alibaba’s Qwen 2.5-Max claims to outperform DeepSeek-V3, GPT-4o, and Llama-3.1-405B.
- DeepSeek’s AI models have disrupted the global market, causing tech stock declines.
- ByteDance and other Chinese firms are also rushing to upgrade their AI models.
DeepSeek’s low-cost AI models have already triggered a price war in China, forcing companies like Alibaba and Baidu to cut prices by up to 97%.
The AI battle is expected to intensify as Chinese startups and tech giants fight for dominance in the global market.
