The Financial Times said Moonshot AI, the company behind Kimi, is preparing to release Kimi K3 in the coming days. According to the report, the model is expected to have between 2 trillion and 3 trillion parameters, which would make it the largest AI model developed in China to date. People familiar with the matter told the Financial Times that, on mainstream evaluation benchmarks, Kimi K3 is expected to outperform Opus 4.8, though it would still trail FABLE 5. The report also said the company plans to offer the model as a free downloadable open-weight release. If launched on those terms, Kimi K3 could pose a major challenge to U.S. AI labs including Anthropic and OpenAI.
