Plagiarism

Research suggesting Huawei’s Pangu large model shares significant parameter similarity with Alibaba’s Qwen, sparking plagiarism allegations. Huawei’s Pangu team denies this, citing different training hardware and adherence to open-source licenses for shared components. While some code within Pangu bears Qwen’s copyright, it’s attributed to proper utilization of open-source licenses rather than outright plagiarism. The original research report has been removed pending peer review.
