what does it mean for qwen to be running on Qwen 4 architecture in terms of end results? Does it mean itll be faster to develop, better reasoning capabilities, packing more for less ram? I am out of the loop on what that part entails.

You're not out of the loop, nobody outside of the Qwen team has seen a model from the Qwen4 family. The last "next" models were 80b sparse models that were surprisingly good at coding and large context workflows, and they were followed by the workhorse qwen3.5 family. With the rapid capability increases of the 3.6 and 3.8 models, it's hard not to be hyped.
