The company's AI technology is based on Qwen, a family of large language and multimodal models that powers intelligence across enterprise solutions, e-commerce and other platforms. Alibaba serves approximately 64 million 88VIP premium members and has over 650 external customers using its proprietary Zhenwu AI processors across more than 20 industries. Updated
