Alibaba Qwen (@Alibaba_Qwen) launched E-Commerce Bench for long-horizon autonomous business ops: agents start with ¥100,000 and run online stores for 365 days in a market driven by real e-commerce data, covering sourcing, negotiation, pricing, promotions, inventory, and cash flow. It includes 6,886 products, 576 suppliers (152 fraudsters), seven-axis scoring, plus open blog, paper, project site, and code.

Key Takeaways

  • ✓Real economics: storage fees, returns, reputation, and 152 fraudulent suppliers among 576.
  • ✓Seven-axis scoring shows no single model dominates; blog, paper, and code are public.
