Alibaba Group Holding’s new Qwen3-Omni multimodal artificial intelligence system has quickly become the most popular model in the world’s largest open-source AI community, challenging closed systems from OpenAI and Google while underscoring the growing popularity of Chinese open AI systems.

Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B, a variant from the Qwen3-Omni series, ranked top on Hugging Face’s trending model list as of Monday, followed by image editing model Qwen-Image-Edit-2509. Alibaba owns the Post.

Alibaba’s cloud computing unit unveiled the Qwen3-Omni series on Tuesday, describing it as the first native end-to-end multimodal system that “unifies text, images, audio and video in one model”.

Shares of Alibaba rose 4.14 per cent in Hong Kong on Monday, closing at HK$173.40.

Initially launched in April, Qwen3 has expanded into a family of models possessing text, image, audio and visual capabilities, as well as various multimodal systems tailored for real-world applications.
