zh-ai-community/august-2025-china-open-source-highlights-68a2de5630f406edaf320e88

✨ Efficiency leads the month
- At scale: optimizing compute use in massive MoE models e.g. DeepSeek v3.1
- In small models: lightweight & deployable
e.g. MiniCPM V 4.5, Step Audio 2-mini, Intern S1-mini,Ovis2.5-9B etc.

✨ Reasoning + Agentic wave 🌊 Not just demos, but real product use cases.
- Meituan, DeepSeek: large-scale models tuned for reasoning & tools
- Qwen, GLM, InternLM: multimodal reasoning + agentic interaction
- CodeAgent, Prover, Baichuan-M2-32B: domain-focused (coding, logic, specialized reasoning)

✨ Open source is exploding across all types of companies!!
- Big tech: Tencent, ByteDance, Xiaomi, Kuaishou, Alibaba/Qwen, Skywork, Ant Group
- Startups: DeepSeek (yes, still a startup!), Zhipu, Baichuan, StepFun, OpenBMB
- New entrants: Meituan, RedNote
- Research labs: Shanghai AI Lab (InternLM, OpenGVLab)

✨ Open source was explicitly mentioned in the State Council’s new guidance on deepening the "AI+" strategy.
- Open-source: support communities, encourage contributions (incl. university credits & recognition), foster new application approaches, and build globally impactful ecosystems 👀

💡 The Chinese community didn’t slow down at all in August 🤯 September, the last month before the Golden Week holiday, may bring even more surprises.
