Moonshot AI has released the weights for its 2.8 trillion parameter Kimi K3 model, making it available on Hugging Face. The model features a new architecture with Kimi Delta Attention and Attention Residuals, designed for long-horizon coding and multimodal tasks. The K3 license, while termed "open weight," includes stricter attribution and commercial use clauses than its predecessor, requiring separate agreements for businesses exceeding certain revenue thresholds. Several platforms, including OpenRouter, Together AI, and Fireworks AI's AI Gateway, are already offering access to Kimi K3, highlighting its immediate industry adoption.
