Alibaba's Qwen3.7-Max debuts with 1M context, autonomous coding

Alibaba has released Qwen3.7-Max, an agent-first LLM with a 1 million token context window, capable of autonomous coding tasks. The model demonstrated a 35-hour coding session without human intervention, optimizing code for unfamiliar hardware and achieving a 10x speedup on a custom chip performance kernel. While independent reproduction of this demo is pending, Qwen3.7-Max shows strong performance on benchmarks like Terminal-Bench 2.0 and MCP-Atlas, surpassing some competitors, though it trails in graduate-level science reasoning and has a lower attempt rate.
