Alibaba: Qwen 3 Max Thinking

Compared with the snapshot as of September 23, 2025, the Qwen-3 series Max model in this release achieves an effective integration of thinking and non-thinking modes, resulting in a comprehensive and substantial improvement in the model’s overall performance. In thinking mode, the model simultaneously supports web search, web information extraction, and a code interpreter tool, enabling it to tackle more complex and challenging problems with greater accuracy by leveraging external tools while engaging in slow, deliberative reasoning. This version is based on a snapshot taken on January 23, 2026.
