Qwen3-Omni + DeepSeek V3.2: the multimodal + long-context open-weight pair

Alibaba Qwen3-Omni (open-weight multimodal: vision + audio + text with SFT/DPO post-training) plus DeepSeek V3.2 (sparse MoE routing refinements + 128K sliding-window context extension) gives creators an open-weight multimodal + long-context pair. The two releases slot into different capability axes — Qwen3-Omni into multimodal, DeepSeek V3.2 into long-context — and together they let creators ship a multimodal agent that processes 100K+ token inputs without paying frontier vendor pricing.
