Alibaba Unveils Zhenwu V900 — and Plans Qwen Models With Up to 10 Trillion Parameters

Alibaba is advancing on two fronts simultaneously: announcing a custom AI accelerator (Zhenwu V900) and committing to massive model scale (10T parameters for future Qwen releases). For practitioners, this matters as a credible third-party capability play outside the US-China licensing squeeze; for enthusiasts, it's a significant lab-race signal about training compute and parameter scaling as competitive levers.
