Is Qwen3 the new CODING KING? (model testing)
AI Summary
In this video, Wes Roth tests the newly released Qwen 3 model, touted as a flagship AI model with a code generation capacity. He begins by comparing Qwen 3’s performance against other models like Gemini 2.5 Pro. Throughout the video, Wes explores its coding capabilities by creating simulations, such as a 2D view of the solar system with user interactable probes. He expresses surprise at the Qwen 3’s ability to process complex code prompts, although he notes that there are areas for improvement, especially in the simulation speeds and gravity functions.
Wes conducts a series of coding challenges including creating a soccer simulation, a snake game with reinforcement learning, and an interactive audio book using OpenAI and 11 Labs API keys. He evaluates each task, comparing the performance of Qwen 3 with other AI models, highlighting strengths in user interaction and coding capabilities, but also mentioning instances where Qwen 3 struggled to meet expectations.
Overall, while Wes acknowledges the strengths of Qwen 3 and its impressive coding capabilities, he remains skeptical about its ranking against more established models like Gemini and Claude, suggesting it’s a strong contender but not yet at the top of the coding AI landscape. He encourages viewers to share their experiences with the model and concludes with thoughts on future developments in the AI space.
