Künstliche Intelligenz: Neues KI-Modell von Tencent soll mehr können als die Konkurrenz

Beijing - Tencent, the Chinese technology conglomerate, has unveiled a new foundational model for artificial intelligence (AI), claiming it surpasses its competitors Moonshot AI and Zhipu in internal tests. The company is thus positioning itself among China's leading AI providers. Previously viewed as a laggard in the global race for powerful AI models, Tencent has been gradually gaining ground in recent weeks.

Chinese AI providers, including Alibaba's tech arm and startups Deepseek, Moonshot AI, and Zhipu, have introduced advanced language models that can compete with leading US providers Anthropic and OpenAI on certain tasks, despite US export restrictions on the most powerful chips that could hinder China's technological development.

The new Tencent model, "Hy4 Preview," reportedly outperformed the latest models from Moonshot and Zhipu in internal engineering tests. Independent benchmarks showed mixed results compared to Chinese competitors like Alibaba's Qwen 3.8 Max. Tencent also presented video demonstrations of the model's applications, such as game development and 3D website design.
