Today, the Tongyi Qianwen large model under Alibaba announced a major functional upgrade, officially launching core capabilities such as "Thinking Research," "Scheduled Tasks," and "Office Assistant," and fully supporting the latest flagship model Qwen3.8-MAX. This update marks a key step in the evolution of large models from "assistant conversation" to "self-execution," aiming to address practical pain points for professionals in complex decision-making and repetitive work.

It is reported that the upgraded "Thinking Research" mode has been deeply optimized based on the original "Deep Thinking" function. This mode enhances complex reasoning and information integration capabilities, capable of generating structured research reports to support decision-making. For example, in business scenarios, it can automatically integrate scattered materials and generate required meeting reports with one click.

The most notable feature is the launch of the "Office Assistant" function. Unlike traditional AI that only provides text suggestions, the Qwen Office Assistant has the ability to connect with external applications and operating systems. It can not only integrate notes, calendars, and emails but also independently operate computers and browsers to complete multi-step tasks and directly deliver usable Office documents.

To address common challenges of data summarization across multiple formats in enterprises, the Office Assistant can automatically clean data and output the final result, truly achieving "real work and real delivery." Additionally, this feature supports cross-device collaboration between mobile and PC ends, allowing users to initiate tasks on mobile devices and have them executed by more powerful PC ends.
