Alibaba Cloud highlighted a limited-time offer to try Qwen3.8-Flash for free on Token Harbor from Sep 20–27. Token Harbor said Qwen3.8 Flash is free for one week, with a 1M context window, and is live on its platform for those dates.
Alibaba Cloud said QwenWork can be given a one-time instruction to check multiple product pages on a set schedule, compare them with the previous week's snapshot, and send a report of price changes with timestamped screenshots.
Alibaba Cloud said Qwen-Image-2.1 improves visual quality over its predecessor, particularly in the aesthetics of text and portraits, and shared text-rendering examples.
Alibaba Cloud said Qwen-Image-2.1 supports several ways to specify local edits, including using circles to mark regions and applying removals and modifications across those regions at once.
Alibaba Cloud announced Qwen-Image-2.1, a unified 7B image generation and editing model with open weights. The company says it natively handles RGBA layers, supports up to 10 reference images, and is available on GitHub, ModelScope, and Hugging Face.
