Tencent Releases Hy4 Open-Source AI Model for Coding and Research Tasks
Tencent has released a preview of Hy4, an open-source AI model designed for coding, research, financial analysis, and office tasks. The model features a mixture-of-experts design with 770 billion parameters, using about 49 billion per request. Tencent plans to integrate Hy4 with its products like CodeBuddy and WorkBuddy. Internal testing showed Hy4 slightly outperformed rival Chinese models from Z.ai and Moonshot AI. Tencent acknowledges the model may take longer on complex queries and is investing heavily in AI development amid growing competition.
