Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash omni evaluation
Qwen’s September 18, 2026 launch post reports a 32-row audio and audio-visual table for Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash against Qwen3.5-Omni-Plus, Gemini 3.8 Flash, Seed 2.0 Lite, and Muse Spark 1.2, plus a separate static-versus-agent comparison on three video sets.
Reasoning, task completion, conversation dynamics, experience, and latency stay separate.
Benchmark profile
- Scope
- Audio-visual agent benchmarks (WildClawBench-MM, UniClawBench, AgenticVBench, OmniGAIA), audio-visual understanding, reasoning, captioning and interaction sets (DailyOmni, WorldSense, AVUT, JoinAVBench, OmniVideoBench, Video-MME-v2, LVOmniBench, OmniCloze, OmniCap-IF, QIVD, StreamingBench), and audio sets covering multi-speaker ASR, multilingual ASR and speech translation, audio understanding and grounding, music understanding, and spoken interaction
- Primary metric
- Accuracy or task score (higher is better), except the ASR rows, which report DER, cpWER, and WER (lower is better)
- Owner
- Qwen Team
- Available evidence
- Exact figures tabulated in the official launch post for all five compared systems
