Timeline

  1. 2023

    BIRD for text-to-SQL

    In 2023, he coauthors BIRD, a text-to-SQL benchmark with 12,751 data pairs across 95 databases.

  2. September 2024

    Qwen2.5-Coder report

    In September 2024, he coauthors the Qwen2.5-Coder technical report, which introduces six code-specific models from 0.5 billion to 32 billion parameters.

  3. March 2025

    START for tool-using reasoning

    In March 2025, he coauthors START, a tool-integrated reasoning language model that uses code execution for complex computations, self-checking, and self-debugging.

  4. May 2025

    Qwen3 technical report

    In May 2025, he coauthors the Qwen3 technical report, which describes dense and mixture-of-experts models with parameter scales from 0.6 to 235 billion.

  5. July 2025

    SWE-Flow for software data

    In July 2025, he coauthors SWE-Flow, a framework that infers incremental development steps from unit tests and turns them into verifiable software-engineering tasks.

  6. February 2026

    Qwen3-Coder-Next for coding agents

    In February 2026, he coauthors Qwen3-Coder-Next, an open-weight model specialized for coding agents with 80 billion parameters and 3 billion active during inference.

  7. July 2026

    Search-and-replace code infilling

    In July 2026, he coauthors the ACL paper From Completion to Editing: Unlocking Context-Aware Code Infilling via Search-and-Replace Instruction Tuning, which proposes Search-and-Replace Infilling (SRI), a single-pass code-editing framework with an explicit search phase.

  8. As of October 2026

    PhD student at SIAT

    As of October 2026, he is a PhD student at Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, focusing on LLMs and NLP.

From OpenAlex, as of 21 October 2026.

  1. Google alumni have founded or led 133 other organizations, more than any other AI labIncludes Alibaba. We estimate that alumni of 17 major AI labs went on to found or lead 350 other organizations, including 226 they founded, and we trace 472 career moves directly between 23 labs since 2010.
  2. Universities (31%) and startups and other companies (25%) employ the largest shares of 2020–2026 entrantsIncludes Alibaba. Among 819 people whose first recorded role started in 2020–2026 and who have a known current organization, 60% work in commercial sectors (25% at startups and other companies, 23% at frontier labs and 13% at big tech, with 9 in two), and 31% work at universities, compared with 66% for earlier entrants.
  3. The top 10 organizations employed 22% of people shaping AI in 2025: 51% of company researchers and 21% of university researchersIncludes Alibaba. We estimate the share of people shaping AI who worked at the top 10 organizations each year from 1955 to 2025, comparing concentration across companies, universities, and institutes and labs.
  4. 16% of AI career moves in the 2020s went from a university to a companyIncludes Alibaba. We estimate that 16% of AI career moves in the 2020s went from a university to a company; 29% of moves starting at a university went to a company, and 76% ended the university role.
