A photo circulating on X shows that days before Moonshot released Kimi K3, an excerpt from reinforcement learning pioneer Richard Sutton's classic essay The Bitter Lesson was hanging on their office wall. The excerpt emphasizes that what we truly need are AI agents capable of "discovering" like humans, rather than merely hardcoding human discoveries into models, as the latter approach actually hinders the model's autonomous discovery process.
