Most Chinese models are no longer open source. Qwen, MinMax, and GLM are transitioning to weights-available models, leaving only Xiaomi and DeepSeek in the open-source space.

AFAIK, there's no evidence that Alibaba won't keep releasing more open source models. Before 3.8 there was speculation they wouldn't release the weights, but they finally did - Although I guess the largest model wasn't multi modal.

And Minmax is set to release their latest flash model on October 23rd.

So not sure where you're getting this from, unless I misunderstood something

It doesn't matter anyway. Weights aren't IP so the licenses are bunk.
