Qwen 3.7 Max

Qwen 3.7 looks pretty impressive.
I think we've reached to the point if Chinese labs catching up with the western frontier labs.
The question is, will the weights be available for download?

Anything named "Max" is probably something far too big to be ran on anything I will have access to locally.

Wait until the Pro Max drops
juaps@reddit
Very local, wait until Ultra

tbh qwen 80b next is very much locally runnable. 120b too.
hell, i even run minimax 230b on my LAPTOP at acceptable speeds. (not a mac).
mouseofcatofschrodi@reddit
that seems to be a good laptop... yisus

nvidia 5080 and soldered LPDDR5X 64gb.
expensive, but not macbook expensive.
wgaca2@reddit
where do you even get your hands on ram chips to upgrade it?

Very contrained, wait until heretic.

How? 3.6 just released, how is this possible? It basically beats Opus 4.6
Sicarius_The_First@reddit (OP)
It beats it on specific benchmarks, frontier models like Opus are still better in edge cases and multi lingual, but these are impressive scores nonetheless.
FullOf_Bad_Ideas@reddit
It's noteworthy that it also outputs about 30% less reasoning tokens than Opus 4.6 in the suite of benchmarks ran by ArtificialAnalysis, while having higher composite scores.
I hope this will translate to solid open weight models and practical usage.
Sicarius_The_First@reddit (OP)
This is very nice for larger moes, those 30% less reasoning tokens matter a lot at scale, with larger models. Some of us use RAM offload to run these big bois, so this translates roughly to 30% more speed in a way hehe.

amazing model,had a really positive experience using it to vibe code some small ~1000 line apps
Sicarius_The_First@reddit (OP)
Yeah the long reasoning is a quirk worth addressing.
It's somewhat 'forgivable' on smaller models (like qwen 35b), but shorter reasoning is very much appreciated on larger models, like this one.
ridablellama@reddit
wowie those bench scores are nuts. has anyone tried it out yet?
Better-Struggle9958@reddit
why MAX?
VoiceApprehensive893@reddit
qwen 3.x max was always a big ass qwen model, bigger than plus(qwen3.5 and qwen3 plus were the biggest open models)
dryadofelysium@reddit
> weights be available for download
they never release Max weights
Dany0@reddit
Man holy shit how are they delivering like this despite losing their best talent wtf š
The day Q3.7 open weights drop it's gonna be mayhem here
DataGOGO@reddit
They are distilling Opus and OpenAIĀ
Dany0@reddit
Bhahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahaa hahhahhHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
Get a load of this guy
Sicarius_The_First@reddit (OP)
I really hope this will be open weights, not even because these benchmark scores look impressive (they are), but because qwen 3.6 was amazing.
Dany0@reddit
Max will never be open weights unless it leaks. They are a public company so their promise makes them legally liable to their investors. Your hope is misplaced
