Alibaba's Latest Innovations: Tmall Growth Toolkit, Multiple AI Qwen2.5 Omni, Smart Mobility with HONOR, Zeekr, BMW, and More!
Welcome to this month's edition of Digital Digest, your curated roundup of Alibaba's latest digital transformation and AI advancements. March brought several breakthrough developments—from compact multimodal models and a flagship AI assistant to strategic partnerships with industry leaders. Read on to discover the key initiatives shaping Alibaba's digital future.
Tmall is enhancing its support for merchant growth through a comprehensive suite of new services and resources. The platform now offers expanded traffic support for increased visibility, expert operational guidance tailored to specific industries, and an extensive resource library featuring training materials, consumer insights, and marketing strategies. This initiative strengthens Tmall's position as a platform that goes beyond sales facilitation to enable lasting business success for both domestic and international brands.
To further enhance its service offerings, Alibaba Cloud has launched Qwen2.5 Omni 7B, an advanced multimodal AI model that seamlessly processes text, image, and audio content. Built on an end-to-end training pipeline, this model sets a new standard for human-machine interaction. In benchmark tests, Qwen2.5 Omni surpasses existing open-source solutions in image captioning, visual question answering, and speech recognition. The model's enterprise-ready design enables real-time applications across content creation, customer service, and smart device integration.
The newly released QWQ-32B is a streamlined large language model that excels in reasoning and instruction-following. With just 32 billion parameters, it matches or exceeds larger models in logical inference, mathematical reasoning, and multilingual comprehension. Its efficient design makes it perfect for businesses looking to implement AI capabilities without compromising on performance or speed.
Alibaba has launched Quark, an all-in-one AI assistant that combines search, productivity tools, and content generation. Built on Alibaba's proprietary language models, Quark features AI-powered document summarization, voice interaction, code generation, and real-time translation. This versatile assistant serves both consumer and business needs, reflecting Alibaba's commitment to making AI technology accessible and practical for everyday use.
At a recent event in Singapore, Alibaba Group Chairman Joe Tsai highlighted open-source development's crucial role in AI advancement. He explained how Alibaba's decision to open-source its Qwen model family has accelerated AI adoption among developers and enterprises. Tsai emphasized that open-source practices promote innovation, ensure transparency, and foster global collaboration while lowering entry barriers for emerging tech startups and proliferating application and use case.
Alibaba Cloud is extending its Qwen AI models through strategic partnerships with HONOR, Zeekr, and BMW to bring AI capabilities to smartphones and vehicles.
The collaboration with HONOR focuses on enhancing smartphone intelligence through advanced voice recognition and user interaction. Zeekr's partnership centers on implementing AI for real-time driving assistance and personalized in-car experiences. BMW is integrating Qwen AI to deliver smarter navigation and voice-enabled services specifically designed for Chinese consumers.
These partnerships advance Alibaba's vision of bringing AI-powered features to edge devices, enhancing user experience across mobile and automotive platforms.
As we wrap up this month’s Digital Digest, Alibaba is making significant strides with Tmall’s enhanced merchant support and innovative AI models like Qwen2.5 Omni. The introduction of Quark and strategic partnerships further highlight Alibaba's commitment to empowering users and businesses.

7moDear @Alibaba Group, I am reaching out to draw your attention to my ongoing issues with AliExpress. For several months, I have been unsuccessfully trying to obtain refunds for multiple orders that either did not match the description or arrived damaged. Customer support has been ignoring my evidence or providing templated responses that do not resolve the problem. I am deeply disappointed with the quality of service, and this negatively impacts the reputation of your platform. I kindly request your intervention to help resolve this matter. I am ready to provide all necessary details and evidence. I look forward to your understanding and support!

7mo💩🤮🤬 Aliexpress order # 8196487986866526 Order is placed Dec 10th 2024. Order received Mar 8th 2025. Actual delivery time 89 days! I have clearly provided all the evidences of severely damaged product packaging. This item has been purchased for GIFT purposes. With heavily damaged package and such delivery time of 89 (EIGHTY NINE!!!) days the product has lost its relevance and actuality. Jan 6th 2025 seller has stopped communications and blocked messaging with me. Neither English return address has been not provided, nor return charges were confirmed. 1. Seller has provided return address in Chinese language only. It could not be accepted. I have repeated this numerous times. Why Aliexpress higher dispute team continue sending me their e-mails blaming me that this order was not returned within the limited return timeline? How it could be returned WITHOUT return address???
Beautiful Innovation...❤️🙏
