Moonshot AI releases Kimi K2, a 128B open-source coding model

Moonshot AI has released Kimi K2, a new 128-billion parameter open-source model designed for complex coding tasks and agentic reasoning. This Mixture-of-Experts model, trained on 14.7 trillion tokens, rivals top closed-source models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o on reasoning benchmarks. Kimi K2 is available under the Apache 2.0 license and shows strong performance in math and coding evaluations, with support for tool use and a long context window. AI

IMPACT Sets a new benchmark for open-source models in coding and agentic reasoning, potentially accelerating development in these areas.
