Either Moonshot is oblivious to the dangers of the path its skirting, or egregiously indifferent. After all, why else would it choose to double down on the same furtive strategy that worked for the Kimi K3 model, and likely will for the Kimi K4 as well, but at huge geopolitical costs, risking the utter wrath of the Trump administration in the process. Moonshot is trying to furtively leverage an even bigger stash of compute resources from NVIDIA to train its upcoming Kimi K4 model As we explained in a recent post, Moonshot has just unveiled its brand-new, open-source Kimi K3 model, […]

It is wholly ironic that OpenAI, a company presumably founded on the principle that AI should be openly accessible to everyone, had refused to sign a letter advocating for open-weight AI models, with Sam Altman only conveying his support after the fact and under immense public pressure. At the same time, the CEO of Moonshot, a company that just unveiled the Kimi K3 open-weight AI model, one that seriously endangers the moat that both OpenAI and Anthropic were meticulously building around their proprietary models, has just issued a scathing take-down of OpenAI, demolishing its star credentials within the ecosystem. Moonshot […]

The episode has also intensified a broader debate in Washington over the influx of Chinese open models.

In a dramatic development that should surprise no one in hindsight, a high-level official in the Trump administration has just declared that Moonshot's Kimi K3 model has been distilled from Anthropic's Fable, and further trained on NVIDIA's GB300 GPUs in Thailand. Michael Kratsios asserts that Moonshot covertly owns some NVIDIA GB300 servers, and accessed additional GB300 GPUs in Thailand to train its Kimi K3 model As we reported recently, the proclivity of China's AI labs to distill frontier US models is raising hackles within the Trump administration, especially given the fact that there is no easy way of preventing this.

Moonshot's Kimi K3 AI model has suddenly taken the world by storm, jumping to the apex spot in Arena's front-end code rankings seemingly out of the blue. Yet, below the surface, a growing quantum of anecdotal evidence indicates that the Kimi K3 has been distilled from Anthropic's Claude, with the model going so far as to identify itself as such in at least one conversation that is doing the rounds on social media. The Kimi K3 model's training and inference cost efficiency is poles apart, which indicates an underlying discrepancy As we explained in a recent post, Moonshot has just […]

Moonshot has unveiled its latest Kimi K3 Open model, which packs a stunning 2.8 trillion parameters & was able to build a chip that crunches 8700 tokens/s in inference. China's Kimi K3 AI Model Autonomously Designed A Fully Functional Chip That Delivers Over 8700 Tokens/s Through Inference Workloads Today, China's leading AI firm, Moonshot, unveiled its brand-new Kimi K3 model, which is the world's first 3T-class "Open" AI model, spanning 2.8 trillion parameters, designed specifically for frontier-scale intelligence. The technical highlights of Kimi K3 include: The AI model is said to trail behind flagship solutions such as OpenAI's GPT 5.6 […]
