Qwen3.8 Max (0902) scores 45 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index.

The r/LocalLLaMA post reports the 2.4T-parameter MoE up 5 points in a month, edging past GLM-5.3 at 44.9 and Kimi K3 at 43.8. The top reply is the useful counterweight: closed-weight, priced higher per task than Astra, with notable knowledge gaps including weak physics. A 5-point index gain over 30 days is not a reason to switch. Track it as the baseline Qwen 4.0 gets measured against.
