Qwen publishes 2.4T-parameter weights under a licence requiring a separate agreement above 50 million dollars of model-as-a-service revenue

Sources: primary, licence, discussion
Summary: Qwen published the Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B weights on Hugging Face. The LICENSE file was read directly for this digest, because the model card's licence tag reads only "other", and it requires a separate agreement from Qwen once a deployment passes stated thresholds, including 50 million dollars of model-as-a-service revenue and a monthly active user count. The repository was created 2026-08-08 and last modified 2026-08-12, so no release date is claimed here. The model card's own evaluation figures are marked unverified on the page and are not published as results.
Why it matters: The licence rather than the parameter count decides who can serve this model, and the thresholds are written in revenue and monthly active users rather than in field of use, so a team hosting inference for third parties has a revenue line to check while purely internal use is not restricted by the same terms.
