by Alibaba

Released 1 days after HappyHorse 1.0 Text-to-Video · Announcement · All Alibaba releases

Qwen3.6-27B is an open-weight 27 billion parameter dense multimodal model focused on agentic coding and reasoning. It uses 64 layers with a hybrid attention structure that mixes Gated DeltaNet linear attention with standard gated attention, and supports a 262,144 token native context window, extensible toward roughly one million tokens with YaRN scaling. Reported scores include SWE-bench Verified 77.2, AIME 2026 94.1, and VideoMME 87.7, reflecting strength in coding, math reasoning, and video understanding. It handles text, image, and video inputs and offers both thinking and non-thinking modes in one checkpoint. The model excels at frontend workflows and repository-level code reasoning, supporting tool calling and complex multimodal problem solving for agentic applications.
