Por qué importa
Moonshot AI is a Chinese startup developing large AI models. The text says it has now released Kimi K3’s weights and supporting infrastructure, and that the model is the largest open-weight AI system so far with 2.8 trillion parameters.
On Monday, the Chinese AI start-up not only released the model’s “weights” – the underlying parameters that encode its intelligence – but also made available key infrastructure, including tools to improve efficiency and stability.
The move has allowed developers around the world, including in the United States, to use, copy, modify and distribute the software – the largest open-weight AI model so far with 2.8 trillion parameters.
The cloud unit of Alibaba Group Holding said its supernode powered by proprietary Zhenwu M890 chips was compatible with Kimi K3, while a computing platform powered by Huawei Technologies’ Ascend 910C also completed adaptation. Alibaba owns the South China Morning Post.
Moonshot itself is diversifying beyond the Nvidia ecosystem.
