Kimi K2 is the first trillion-parameter open-source model released by "Moonshot," focusing on tasks such as code generation and general intelligent agents (Agent). According to the official introduction, Kimi K2 has achieved excellent results in multiple performance benchmark tests, including SWE Bench Verified, Tau2, and AceBench. These test results indicate that Kimi K2 performs well in code, intelligent agents, and mathematical reasoning, demonstrating leading capabilities.
The architecture of Kimi K2 adopts a mixture of experts (MoE) design, with a total parameter count of an impressive 1 trillion, and an activated parameter count of 32 billion. Such a parameter scale enables it to better handle challenges in various complex tasks.
It is reported that Perplexity had previously used the DeepSeek R1 model for training, which laid the foundation for its further exploration in the field of artificial intelligence. Aravind's positive evaluation of Kimi K2 indicates that Perplexity is actively seeking new technology and model collaboration opportunities to promote the development of its products and services.
The release of Kimi K2 not only enhances "Moonshot"'s competitiveness in the open-source model field but also provides new possibilities for Perplexity's future development. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, companies that can maintain a leading position in this field will bring more innovative solutions to the market.
Aravind's statement shows Perplexity's confidence in the Kimi K2 model and its expectations and strategies for future developments in artificial intelligence technology.
