Tencent has introduced Hunyuan Turbo S, an AI model designed for speed, offering instant responses rather than deep reasoning. Unlike models that take a moment to process and reply, Turbo S prioritizes quick interactions while maintaining strong performance in knowledge, math, and reasoning. Tencent has also reduced the cost significantly, making it more accessible to users.
This release is part of a growing AI race in China, with companies like DeepSeek and Alibaba launching competitive models. Tencent is also preparing a separate model, T1, for more in-depth reasoning tasks. Learn more: Tencent Hunyuan Turbo S
