this is as much of a official acknowladgement from frontier labs about chinese models capablites you would get. But i am glad at least oai bros are no longer coping about distils

the era of the chinese labs being far behind is over, Kimi is at least on par with the modern public frontier models. people have to think differently now without any competitive margin built in

model personality/character (brand) + associated product surface is all that will actually matter

The nice thing about this is that it forces roon and his ilk to compete on product harder (while also racing on the model layer). The Codex Micro is a good proof of concept. GPT-voice. Computer use. Codex itself. Better, nicer, faster, deeper interfaces gimme

Note: in the coming days, i expect that people will find kimi k3 somewhat less practically useful than today's numbers suggest. however, its reputation will settle as an incredibly powerful model whose open weights are on the web
