Interesting - when I asked the omni model at qwen.com what version it was, I got a testy "I don't have a version" and then was told my chat was blocked for inappropriate content. A second try asking for knowledge cutoff got me the more equivocal "2024, but I know stuff after that date, too".

No idea how to check if this is actually deployed on qwen.com right now.

Assuming you mean qwen.ai, when you run a query it should take you to chat.qwen.ai with the list of models in the top left. None of the options appear to be the -Omni variant (at least when anonymously accessing it).

Thanks - yes - I did. The blog post suggests clicking the 'voice' icon on the bottom right - that's what I did.

For what it's worth, that's not a reliable way to check what model you're interacting with.

It’s a good positive signal, but not a good negative one.

It would be convincing if it said “I’m qwen-2025-12-whatever”. I agree it’s not dispositive if it refuses or claims to be llama 3 say. Generally most models I talk to do not hallucinate future versions of themselves, in fact it can be quite difficult to get them to use recent model designations; they will often autocorrect to older models silently.
