BlockBeats News, August 6, ByteDance is discussing training a model with over 5 trillion parameters, surpassing Alibaba's Qwen3.8-Max (2.4 trillion parameters) and Dark Matter's K3 (2.8 trillion parameters), making it the largest known model in China in terms of parameters. Generally, a larger model size corresponds to a higher level of intelligence.
