Moonshot AI releases Kimi K3.1 Pro with 1M context window and 2.8T parameters

Moonshot AI has launched Kimi K3.1 Pro, a new model in its K3.1 series, featuring 2.8 trillion total parameters with 104 billion active parameters in a Mixture-of-Experts architecture. This model boasts a 1-million-token context window and is positioned to compete with leading proprietary models on various benchmarks, including coding and agentic tasks. While Kimi K3.1 Pro shows strong performance in coding, particularly on the SWE-Marathon benchmark where it surpasses Claude Opus 5.5, it lags behind models like GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5 in scientific reasoning tasks. AI

IMPACT Sets a new standard for context window length and parameter count in open-weight models, potentially driving competition in long-context AI.
