AWS open-sources Strands Decider 2B and launches Strands Box sandbox for agent execution

AWS released Strands Decider 2B, a 2-billion-parameter decision-focused model (based on Qwen3.5-2B with a pointer head and rank-16 LoRA) and published the model weights, training data, and scripts. It also announced Strands Box (developer preview), a kernel-enforced sandbox using the Dogwood policy language to control agent execution (shell, Python, tools, filesystem, network); AWS reports ~115 ms median decision latency on an RTX 3090 and 72.3% accuracy on JevBench for a v19 checkpoint.

Alibaba releases Qwen-Image-2.1: open-weight 7B image model that the team says outperforms closed models

Alibaba's Qwen AI team published Qwen-Image-2.1, an open-weight image-generation and editing model with a 7 billion-parameter visual component that the team claims outperforms most closed models on their internal benchmark; independent evaluations are still pending. The model supports RGBA output, up to ten reference images, local edits via masks or painted marks, claimed inference speedups via architecture and KV-cache reuse, runs on consumer GPUs (e.g., RTX 3090), and is available on Hugging Face, GitHub, and ModelScope under a research-only license that prohibits commercial use without separate licensing.
