Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
GPT-4.1 supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
OpenAI
GPT-4.1, released by OpenAI in April 2025, is a large language model from the GPT-4 family optimized for coding, precise instruction following, and long-context tasks. It features a 1M token context window and native image understanding, with improved performance on tool-calling and web development benchmarks compared to GPT-4o. GPT-4.1 targets software development workflows, long-document analysis, and applications requiring accurate, instruction-adherent outputs.
Alibaba / Qwen
Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct is a 14-billion-parameter language model from Alibaba released in September 2024 within the Qwen2.5 family, occupying the mid-tier of the series between efficiency-focused small models and the high-capability 72B flagship. Trained on 18 trillion tokens with emphasis on instruction alignment, code understanding, and multilingual reasoning, it offers a strong performance-to-compute ratio for developers who need more capability than 7B but cannot serve 32B or larger models. The model supports 128K context windows and structured output generation out of the box.
