Alibaba announced the release of Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct, an open agentic code model with 480B parameters and 256K context length, praised for rapid development and strong coding performance. Benchmark claims of 41.8% on ARC-AGI-1 faced skepticism from Franois Chollet and others due to reproducibility issues. The model quickly integrated into ecosystems like vLLM, Dynamic GGUFs, and OpenRouterAI. The White House unveiled a new AI Action Plan emphasizing Innovation, Infrastructure, and International Diplomacy, linking AI leadership to national security and prioritizing compute access for the Department of Defense. The plan sparked debate on open vs. closed-source AI, with calls from Clement Delangue to embrace open science to maintain US AI competitiveness.
