Qwen 3.5 small model is now fully open source. This is absolutely a 'dimensionality reduction strike' on the current AI developer landscape: Maximum impact with minimal effort: The 9B model directly takes on the 120B giant (13 times smaller in size!) Outsmarting the big players: Core benchmarks surprisingly outperform Gemini 3 Flash and Claude 4.5 Sonnet in specific dimensions. Zero hardware barriers: The scariest part? It runs smoothly on your old, crappy laptop or even your phone! Completely free.
