Kimi is set to launch its K3 multimodal open-weight AI model featuring an impressive 2.8 trillion parameters and a context window of one million tokens. According to The Decoder, the full model weights are scheduled for release by July 27.

The Decoder also noted that K3’s performance benchmarks place it close to leading models like Claude Fable 5 and GPT 5.6 Sol, while surpassing Opus 4.8 and GLM 5.2. This positions Kimi’s new model as a significant player in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

For Japanese markets, the introduction of such a large-scale AI model highlights ongoing competition in AI innovation, potentially impacting sectors from FX algorithmic trading to crypto market analysis and equities forecasting.
