## Summary

Tencent said it expanded the inference cluster serving its Hy4 model tenfold after many WorkBuddy users hit their quotas on launch day. It also raised free quotas and warned that limits may still appear at peak times, suggesting users switch to Hy3, whose free access was extended to 23:59 on November 15, or move non-urgent tasks to the evening. Tencent cited Artificial Analysis, which ranks Hy4 second among Chinese models in its Intelligence Index, and Agent Arena, which lists it 13th overall as a preliminary result.
