China's large models are shifting towards semi-open source. The latest released models are all not open-sourced immediately, and those that promised to open-source still haven't done so. This shows the industry has moved past the stage of using open source to grab attention and entered the commercialization phase of using closed source to drive profits. GLM 5.1 wasn’t open-sourced right away MiniMax 2.7 wasn’t open Qwen 3.6 Plus wasn’t open either Now, it’s basically moving towards delayed open source or even closed source. Open-sourcing immediately is like tearing down your own moat.
