Hunyuan

混元

Hunyuan (混元) is Tencent's large-model product line , with Liu Wei — a former Tencent distinguished scientist who joined Tencent AI Lab in June 2016 — serving as one of its technical leads before departing to found Video Rebirth . In the past year the family has been active on two fronts: in October 2025, Hunyuan Image 3.0 topped LMArena's global image leaderboard, which — as 十字路口Crossing put it — meant it "won the highest score in the test of which image real users find better-looking" among 26 top models, helped by what that piece described as built-in "world knowledge" applied to image generation ; and on the text side, 葬AI noted in July 2026 that the Hy3 model climbed within a month from clearly trailing DeepSeek to the same tier as Qwen 3.7 Max and MiniMax M3, while characterizing Hunyuan overall as a second-tier domestic model prone to instability in repeated runs . More recently, per a September 2026 葬AI piece, Tencent has also shipped Hy4, effectively a Flash-class fast model alongside GLM, Qwen, and DeepSeek equivalents .
