Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is a 125B-parameter sparse MoE (6B active, plus 51B n-gram embedding parameters held off the accelerator) and the first open release of the architecture planned for Qwen4. It swaps full attention for Qwen Sparse Attention, adds a gated residual stream and n-gram embeddings, and in Qwen's tables beats Qwen3.8-27B and Qwen3.7-Plus on most agent and vision tasks. Qwen3.8-Flash is the API version. model card; tech report abstract
