Qwen Team

The Qwen Team is a research group within Alibaba responsible for developing the Qwen series of large language models and related artificial intelligence technologies. Operating under Alibaba’s broader AI initiatives, the team focuses on creating both open-source and commercially available models designed for diverse applications. Their work spans foundational language models to specialized systems across various modalities, aiming to advance the capabilities of generative AI.

A significant recent development from the team is the open-sourcing of the Qwen3-TTS family of models. This release extends the Qwen ecosystem beyond text-based generation into the domain of text-to-speech synthesis, providing researchers and developers with accessible tools for audio generation tasks.
