Moonshot AI just released the full open weights for Kimi K3.1 Pro, a 2.8-trillion-parameter MoE model that activates 104B parameters per token. It features a 1M token context window and native multimodal reasoning. Its massive 1.56TB size targets enterprise clusters running vLLM or SGLang.
Kimi just launched K3.1 Pro, a 3T-class open-weight MoE model packing 2.8T total and 104B active parameters with a 1M-token context window. It handles full-project game coding across Unreal, Unity, and Godot, while cutting finance hallucinations by 65%. The open weights are slated for release on Nov 4, 2026.
Kimi just open-sourced Kimi K3, a massive 2.8-trillion parameter MoE model featuring native vision understanding and a 1-million-token context window. The team claims a new architecture delivers 2.5x the intelligence per unit of compute, and they are also releasing the full underlying stack, from custom attention kernels to scalable agent infrastructure.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is heading to Washington this week to preview the company's next-generation AI models for Trump administration officials and lawmakers. Beyond showcasing new capabilities and worker productivity, Altman faces tough questions on cybersecurity following a recent sandbox escape, as well as rising anxiety over Chinese open-weight models rapidly closing the gap.
The Trump administration just accused China's Moonshot AI of secretly distilling Anthropic's top-tier Fable model to build its new 2.8-trillion parameter K3 system, while allegedly tapping Nvidia GB300 chips in Thailand. The Treasury is now weighing trade blacklists and sanctions, though Chinese officials firmly denied the allegations.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just warned that Washington could sanction Chinese AI firms if their open-source models are caught stealing U.S. intellectual property. The threat lands as Chinese alternatives like Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 increasingly challenge OpenAI and Anthropic. Still, critics like Hugging Face's CEO push back, arguing model distillation is standard practice rather than theft.
Moonshot AI is reportedly preparing to launch Kimi K3, a massive open-weight model with up to 3 trillion parameters meant to rival Anthropic’s Opus 4.8. The Chinese lab is also raising capital at a $31.5 billion valuation as enterprises increasingly weigh open-weight alternatives against pricey closed models.
Moonshot AI just unveiled Kimi K3, a 2.8-trillion parameter model claimed as the world's first open 3T-class frontier model. Built on a sparse MoE activating 16 of 896 experts, K3 features native vision, a 1-million-token context window, and high-level autonomous coding skills. Full model weights are set to drop on July 27, 2026.
Moonshot AI just open-sourced Kimi K2.7 Code, a massive 1-trillion parameter MoE model with 32B active parameters. It slashes reasoning token usage by roughly 30% while closing the gap on top proprietary frontier models like GPT-5.5 and Opus 4.8 in long-horizon programming tasks. Full 600GB weights are now available on Hugging Face.
Moonshot AI just launched Kimi Work, a desktop agent for macOS and Windows that reads your local files, drives your real browser, and runs scheduled background jobs. Powered by its K2.6 model, higher tiers can spin up a swarm of up to 300 parallel sub-agents. It is currently in testing, with subscriptions starting at $19/month alongside a free tier.
Moonshot AI just rolled out a HighSpeed mode for its K2.7-Code model, hitting up to 260 tokens per second — a 6x speed jump. It reportedly cuts reasoning tokens by 30% through post-training tweaks, though independent coding benchmarks have yet to confirm the claims.
Kimi just launched Kimi K2.6, an open-source coding model built for long-horizon engineering tasks. It supports over 4,000 sequential tool calls, runs continuously for 12 hours, and orchestrates swarms of up to 300 parallel sub-agents to refactor 100+ files at once. Model weights are live on Hugging Face alongside web access on kimi.com.
Moonshot AI just introduced Attention Residuals (AttnRes), a drop-in replacement that swaps standard fixed residual connections for dynamic attention across depth. This lets layers selectively pull from earlier representations without suffering from representation dilution. Its practical block variant matches a baseline trained with 1.25x more compute, delivering sharp jumps in complex reasoning and coding benchmarks.
Anthropic just accused three Chinese AI labs—DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax—of running industrial-scale distillation attacks. The firms allegedly routed over 16 million exchanges through roughly 24,000 fraudulent accounts to siphon Claude's reasoning and coding powers. Why it matters: Anthropic warns that distilled copies strip out safety guardrails and directly undermine US export controls.
Moonshot AI just integrated the OpenClaw framework directly into kimi.com with Kimi Claw, moving complex agent workflows from local setups to a 24/7 cloud tab. Users get 40GB of storage for persistent RAG datasets, access to ClawHub's 5,000 community skills, and Telegram bridging for automated tasks.
Moonshot AI just open-sourced Kimi K2.5, a visual agent claiming top scores across multimodal and coding benchmarks. The headline feature is an "Agent Swarm" setup that runs up to 100 parallel sub-agents to finish complex tasks 4.5x faster. It is already accessible on kimi.com, with model weights published on Hugging Face.
Perplexity just added OpenAI's brand-new GPT-5.1 to its search engine for Pro and Max subscribers. Paid users get immediate access to both GPT-5.1 Instant for rapid daily chats and GPT-5.1 Thinking for heavy reasoning. Perplexity's CEO also teased that Moonshot AI's Kimi K2 is coming soon.
Moonshot AI just open-sourced Kimi K2, a 1-trillion parameter MoE model with 32B activated parameters engineered specifically for coding and autonomous agent workflows. It scored 53.7% on LiveCodeBench, comfortably beating DeepSeek-V3 and GPT-4.1, powered by a new MuonClip optimizer that eliminates training instability. Why it matters: High-end agentic intelligence is rapidly shifting from pricey closed APIs to open, dirt-cheap alternatives.
