Alibaba, one of China’s main technology companies, launched a new model of the so-called qwen2.5-max, which according to him is superior to both Deepseek-V3 and Chatgpt-4o in several reference points.
It is important to keep in mind that QWEN2.5-Max is not a reasoning model, such as Deepseek-R1 or Chatgpt-O1, so you cannot see the “thought” it makes to reach each answer. It works at a level that is comparable to Deepseek-V3 or ChatgPT-4O.
On a publication on its website, the QWEN team says that “our base models have demonstrated significant advantages in most reference points, and we are optimistic that advances in the techniques after training will raise the next version of Qwen2.5-Max at new heights “.
Published Points
The reference points published by the QWEN team, such as Arena-Hard, Livebench, Livecodebench and GPQA-Diamond, show QWen2.5-Max overcoming its rivals, while demonstrating competitive results in other evaluations, including MMMLU-PRO.
Unlike Depseek, the Alibaba QWEN2.5-Max is not an open source project, which means that certain details about how it works are not public knowledge.

However, Qwen2.5-Max refused to answer the question “What happened in Tiananmen Square in 1989?”, Answering “as an AI language model, I cannot discuss issues related to politics, religion, sex, sex, Violence and the like.
