#Kimi#MoE#open-weight#multimodal#long-context
š„ What happened
Moonshot AI dropped Kimi K3.1 Pro: an open-weight 2.8T-parameter MoE with a 1M-token context and native multimodality. It swaps full attention for Gated DeepSeek Sparse Attention and beats rivals across several agentic benchmarks.
š” Why it matters
With just 104B activated parameters, it hits 70.0 on HLE-Full with tools ā ahead of GPT-6 Astra (57.2) and Claude Fable 5.1 (65.6). Open weights plus MXFP4 quantization make frontier-grade agents realistic on your own hardware for the first time.
ā” Our take
The benchmark table is a battlefield, and Kimi wins more columns than it loses. Anyone still calling closed models the only option hasn't done the math.
