Alibaba is reportedly introducing revenue-sharing clauses in licensing agreements for the next-generation Qwen AI model. Major commercial users may be required to share a portion of their revenue, similar to Moonshot’s Kimi K3 plan, which demands up to 30% revenue sharing for users generating over $20 million annually. This move comes amid growing news surrounding AI and crypto, hinting at a potential partnership announcement between Alibaba and key industry players.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that, according to insiders, Alibaba plans to include revenue-sharing terms in the licensing agreement for its next-generation Qwen open-source AI model, requiring large commercial users to share a portion of the revenue generated by the model.

Reports indicate that Alibaba’s plan resembles the model adopted by Moonshot for Kimi K3. Under the Kimi K3 licensing agreement, if users offer the model as a service and generate annual revenue exceeding $20 million, they must enter into a commercial cooperation agreement with Moonshot, with revenue sharing reaching up to 30%.
