InternS1 vs Qwen2.5 7B Instruct

Shanghai AI Lab

InternS1, released by Shanghai AI Laboratory at WAIC 2025 on July 26, 2025, is a multimodal scientific reasoning large language model designed for advanced problem-solving across mathematics, physics, chemistry, and related domains. It supports text, image, and potentially other scientific data formats as input, and demonstrated strong performance on competition-level scientific benchmarks. InternS1 targets open-source scientific research, STEM education, and applications requiring deep domain reasoning across natural science disciplines.

Alibaba / Qwen

Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct is a 7-billion-parameter open-weight language model from Alibaba's Qwen team, released in September 2024 as part of the Qwen2.5 series trained on 18 trillion tokens with improved code, math, and multilingual coverage. The model delivers significantly stronger instruction-following, structured output generation, and long-context handling compared to its predecessor, supporting 128K context windows in a compact form factor. It became widely adopted as a foundation for fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, and on-device deployment due to its balance of capability and efficiency.
