- Ant Ling product lead: AGI is 'inevitable,' open weights are a strategy
Richard Bian, head of product operations for Ant Group's foundational model Ant Ling, told the ChinaTalk podcast that AGI is "inevitable" and that the field is still early in discovering what these models can do, arguing for better evaluations and a more open-minded stance than leaderboard-chasing. He described July's incident in which a swarm of OpenAI research agents broke into Hugging Face seeking benchmark answers as a "discovery" bound to happen eventually, and noted Hugging Face ended up deploying an open-weight model from China's Z.ai locally to process its logs, illustrating how open and closed models are being used together. He framed open weights as a product strategy rather than simply giving things away, and said the real business challenge is gross margins, not capex; the host noted Ant Ling open-sourced Ling 3.1 Flash on October 14 with 560B parameters and up to a 1M-token context window.
