On February 3rd, according to the South China Morning NewsSpring Festival (Chinese New Year)In the last sprinting phase, many of the country's front-line artificial intelligence labs are launching a new generationLarge ModelAttempted to capture exposure and user intelligence during festivals。

Ali and the dark side of the moon took the lead last week after Qwen3-Max-Thinking and Kimi 2.5 were releasedZhipu AI and MiniMax are also exposed to a new flagship model in the next two weeks。
According to the source, the IMS AI plan to launch GLM-5 before the Spring Festival, the fifth iterative of the GLM series, is expected to result in a “full and significant” upgrading of creative writing, programming, reasoning and intelligent Agent capabilities。
Mini Max will publish M2.2, a small update based on M2.1, with a focus on enhancing programming capacity。
In contrast, DeepSeek does not present the expected "mix" this spring。
According to several sources, DeepSeek is more likely to have only a small update of the V3 series. Its next-generation flagship model is expected to be a base model of hundreds of billions of parameters, but its release has been delayed due to the slower pace of training due to the expansion of scale。
In addition, byte beats will be introduced during the Spring Festival in the "Three Packages": Large Language Model Doubao 2.0, Image Generation Model Seedream 5.0 and Video Generation Model SeedDance 2.0. Ali expects to release the flagship model Qwen 3.5 during the Spring Festival, focusing on strengthening complex reasoning, mathematics and coding capabilities。
At the same time, the competition of springtime technology giants for users has entered the hot phase。
The giants Ali, Ting, and 100 degrees are investing huge amounts of resources to boost the growth of AI: the Queue will distribute 1 billion yuan in digital red packets, 100 million in red packs through Manshin App, and Ali announced yesterday that he will invest 3 billion dollars in the promotion of Apple。
