Rumored Kimi-K3: Leaks and Benchmark Roundup
智东西 · wechat · 2026-07-16
Suspected leaks and tests regarding Kimi-K3 are gaining traction. This article compiles multiple rounds of external testing on the anonymous model Kivine, widely speculated to be the upcoming Kimi-K3 from Moonshot AI. K3's performance in frontend generation, 3D interaction, and gaming tasks is considered highly impressive, with some claiming it feels "wilder and more complex" than the Opus and GPT series.
The article also aggregates rumored specs: K3 might feature 2–3T total parameters, a 1M context window, and a novel KimiDeltaAttention (KDA) architecture optimized for long-horizon Agent tasks. Other sources suggest it might combine MLA and support Agent Swarm, allowing complex tasks to be split across multiple sub-agents for parallel execution. The author concludes that while K3 might not immediately surpass Anthropic/OpenAI flagships, matching or exceeding Opus 4.8 in coding would mark a significant breakthrough for domestic models.
