Alibaba on Monday introduced Qwen3.8-Max, its largest artificial intelligence model to date, expanding its enterprise AI portfolio with an open-weight model designed for software engineering, multimodal reasoning, and other knowledge-intensive business workloads.
In a blog post announcing the launch, Alibaba described Qwen3.8-Max as a 2.4-trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts (MoE) model that activates only about 95 billion parameters during inference.
The company said the architecture is intended to improve inference efficiency while supporting coding, reasoning and multimodal tasks, with open-weight versions scheduled for release next week through Alibaba Cloud's Model Studio.
"We believe it's one of the most powerful model available today, compatible to leading frontier AI models, second only to Fable 5," Alibaba said in an X post.
Benchmarks target Anthropic and OpenAI's coding models
Alibaba published internal test results comparing Qwen3.8-Max against Claude Opus 4.8, Claude Fable 5, and OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol on coding benchmarks, including SWE-bench Pro and a proprietary evaluation the company calls NL2Repo-Bench.
The company said it evaluated competing models using each ven

Google has used AI tools to detect and patch 1,072 vulnerabilities in versions 149 and 150 of its Chrome browser, the company announced in a blog post.
That's more vulnerabilities patched than in the previous 23 updates combined, according to Bleeping Computer.
One vulnerability detected by AI had been present in Chrome for 13 years but, for some reason, had never been detected by Google's developers.
To further strengthen security, Google now plans to release new security patches for Chrome every week; down the road, it might even release two updates per week if needed.

Now that Samsung has jumped into the crowded AI-powered glasses arena alongside Apple, Google, Meta, and others, CISOs and IT leaders are again having to think through whether it makes sense to establish enterprise restrictions on such devices, given the likely data leakage and privacy and compliance issues.
And even if those tech leaders decide that such policies might make sense, the logistical hurdles to universally enforcing them outside the office are all but insurmountable.
For example, it is up to individual wearers to choose their device's settings, making it difficult for IT policies around data acquisition and usage to be enforced. Worse, AI devices have a history of ignoring guardrails. That means that a setting that limits how data is used may not necessarily be obeyed.
One possible mitigating factor is that smart glasses typically have a light on the frame that activates whe

With a $30 MSRP, this Iniu power bank has a 10,000mAh capacity, which means it has enough juice to recharge you phone about twice over, although that depends on what phone you have and if you're using the device while it's recharging or not.
The Iniu power bank has a cute strap you can use to carry it around town. The best part is that the strap is actually a short USB-C cable you can use to plug your phone in.
The power bank has a total of three ports, two of which are USB-C and one of which is USB-A, which means you can technically recharge multiple devices at once. With the 45W total output, charging speed would drop considerably if you plug in multiple gadgets.
Remember that in order to get the fabulous $11.21 price, you have to redeem the on-page coupon for the extra 40% discount that goes on top of the 38% off that's already available for the power bank. Stop wasting time because there's no way to know when this deal will expire.
