Kimi K3 Is Here. China Just Hit the AI Frontier.
About this episode
The episode discusses the launch of Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 and its benchmarks compared to other AI models, along with various AI-related news and developments.
AI news: Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 is a big AI model and Moonshot's early benchmarks put it surprisingly close to GPT-5.6 Sol and Claude Fable 5. And… Kevin's Opus 5 SCOOP!! Also: OpenAI's reported screenless AI speaker, a Seedance 2.5 preview, the Suno hack, robot fights and AI-built games in Unreal Engine and Blender. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell unpack Kimi K3's benchmarks, pricing, Flappy Bird and Minecraft tests, and giant-model economics. Then, Kevin DRIPS Opus 5 alpha and says it's VERY good and blows the doors off of Fable but it's… slow. Plus Demis Hassabis's AI-governance proposal, AI 2040's Plan A, OpenAI's reported screenless speaker, Codex Keyboard, a Seedance 2.5 preview, the alleged sources exposed by the Suno hack, spectacular robot violence, polite office-robot dabbing, and what happens when GPT-5.6 Sol meets Unreal Engine, Blender and two hosts with free time. THE AI FRONTIER IS MOVING AGAIN—AND CHINA IS RIGHT THERE WITH IT. // Show Links // AI FOR HUMANS Survey https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/forms/b7c77287-2cfd-4b64-a278-eb1a2ccb5744 Official Moonshot AI Kimi K3 launch video https://x.com/Kimi_Moonshot/status/2077521842080817296…
