Tencent Hy4: 770B AI Sees Images, Operates Computers at Low Cost

Tencent has released Hy4, a 770-billion-parameter AI model capable of processing images and operating computers. While its own benchmarks show it trailing competitors like Claude in coding tasks, Hy4 demonstrates strong performance in visual reasoning and computer operation, nearly matching Claude and surpassing GPT-6.1 Sol. The model is notable for its competitive pricing, priced significantly lower than models like Gemini 4 Carbon, making it an attractive option for tasks requiring extensive software interaction and visual analysis, though its full weights are not yet publicly available. AI

IMPACT Offers a cost-effective alternative for complex visual and computer operation tasks, potentially impacting enterprise adoption for multi-modal agents.
