A comprehensive evaluation was performed on a suite of models, including Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B- Instruct, Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Thinking, and two in-house developed variants, designated Qwen3- Omni-Flash-Instruct and Qwen3-Omni-Flash-Thinking. These “Flash” models were designed to improve both computational efficiency and performance efficacy, integrating new functionalities, notably the support for various dialects. ...&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2509.17765/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

Edit: I see now that there is no Omni-235B-A22B; disregard the following. ~~Which is interesting - I&amp;#x27;d have expected the larger model to have more weights to &amp;quot;waste&amp;quot; on additional modalities and thus for the opposite to be true (or for the VL to outperform in both cases, or for both to benefit from knowledge transfer).~~ Relevant comparison is on page 15: https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.17765&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2509.17765/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
