Tencent has released a preview of Hy4, an open-source artificial intelligence model built for software engineering, research and financial analysis.
The model uses a mixture-of-experts architecture with 770 billion parameters. Tencent said about 49 billion parameters activate for an individual text request, allowing the system to draw on a portion of its full capacity for each task.
Tencent plans to integrate Hy4 into products including CodeBuddy and WorkBuddy. The company described the model as an early release and acknowledged that it can sometimes take longer than necessary to solve complex questions or repeatedly check its answers.
The launch adds to Tencent’s broader push into artificial intelligence as Chinese and global developers compete to expand their AI capabilities.
