Summary

QwQ 32B is a reasoning specialist in the Qwen family. Unlike a conventional instruct model, it was trained with supervised examples and reinforcement learning to work through difficult tasks step by step.

The open model has roughly 32.5 billion parameters and a full context length of 131,072 tokens. Prompts longer than 8,192 tokens require YaRN to be enabled.
