Qwen Team Sees Multiple Senior Resignations
On March 4, 2026, Junyang Lin, lead researcher for Alibaba's Qwen models, announced his resignation and several other core Qwen researchers also departed. Alibaba CEO convened an emergency all‑hands as the departures follow a recent reorganization; the team had recently released the high-performing Qwen 3.5 family (models from 0.8B to 397B). The exits threaten continuity of future Qwen development.
Scoring Rationale
High significance due to multiple senior resignations at a leading open-model team, limited by partial sourcing and uncertain outcomes.
