Ling-mini-2.0 is a small-sized, high-performance large language model based on the MoE architecture. It has a total of 16 billion parameters, but only activates 1.4 billion parameters per token (non-embedding 789 million), achieving extremely high generation speed. Thanks to the efficient MoE design and large-scale high-quality training data, despite activating only 1.4 billion parameters, Ling-mini-2.0 still demonstrates top-tier performance on downstream tasks comparable to dense LLMs under 10 billion parameters and even larger-scale MoE models.
inclusionAI/Ling-mini-2.0 vs Qwen3.8 Max
Compare inclusionAI/Ling-mini-2.0 from InclusionAI and Qwen3.8 Max from Qwen on key metrics including benchmarks, price, context length, and other model features. Access both models and hundreds of others through the AIHubMix API.
inclusionAI/Ling-mini-2.0Qwen3.8-Max is Alibaba Cloud Tongyi Qianwen's next-generation flagship large language model, featuring a mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture with 2.4 trillion parameters. It achieves another breakthrough in encoding depth, enabling it to handle more complex engineering-grade projects and long-term autonomous development; collaborative agent capabilities are significantly enhanced, performing more confidently in multi-tool orchestration and end-to-end delivery; visual understanding is comprehensively improved, with more sensitive and accurate chart reasoning, document parsing, and multimodal perception. Continuing the 1-million-context window, reasoning modes, and a complete tool ecosystem, it continues to evolve at a higher level of intelligence.
