Moonshot's upcoming Kimi 3 is expected to close the gap with Anthropic's Opus 4.8

据《金融时报》报道，中国 AI 实验室 Moonshot AI 最新的 Kimi 模型系列有望表现与 Anthropic 的 Opus 4.8 相当，甚至超越其表现：https://www.ft.com/content/c6ecd8ce-c441-4d7c-aea6-fae3e28fb6ff?syn-25a6b1a6=1，报道引用了匿名消息来源。

Moonshot 的 Kimi K2 模型：https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/kimi-k2-6 在开源 AI 市场上反响良好，在基准测试中排名靠前，并展示出与最新前沿模型相差不大的能力。

据称，该公司即将推出的 Kimi K3 将进一步缩小与 OpenAI 和 Anthropic 等闭源模型的差距。《金融时报》报道，Kimi K3 将成为中国最大的开源权重大模型，参数数量在 2 万亿到 3 万亿之间，并将在“未来几天”发布。

据悉，Moonshot 也正在筹集新一轮资金，该轮融资公司估值将达到 315 亿美元。今年五月，该公司以 200 亿美元估值筹集了 20 亿美元：https://techcrunch.com/2026/05/07/chinas-moonshot-ai-raises-2b-at-20b-valuation-as-demand-for-open-source-ai-skyrockets/。

这一消息正值一场关于是否值得为 OpenAI 和 Anthropic 等 AI 实验室昂贵的闭源模型付费的新辩论之际：https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/13/satya-nadella-has-issued-a-shocking-warning-to-companies-using-ai/。行业领导者担心，AI 实验室可能以某种方式从客户提交用于 ChatGPT 和 Claude 等 AI 产品的数据中提取信息。

The latest iteration of Chinese AI lab Moonshot AI’s Kimi model series is expected to perform at par with or even surpass Anthropic’s Opus 4.8, Financial Times reported：https://www.ft.com/content/c6ecd8ce-c441-4d7c-aea6-fae3e28fb6ff?syn-25a6b1a6=1, citing anonymous sources.

Moonshot’s Kimi K2 models：https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/kimi-k2-6 have been received well in the open source AI market, ranking high on benchmarks and demonstrating capabilities that aren’t too far behind the latest frontier models.

The company’s upcoming release, called Kimi K3, is said to take this one step further to close the gap with closed-source models from the likes of OpenAI and Anthropic. FT reports Kimi K3 will be the largest open-weight AI model from China, with a parameter count between 2 trillion and 3 trillion, and will be released “in the coming days.”

Moonshot is also said to be raising fresh capital in a round that would valuate it at $31.5 billion. The company in May raised $2 billion at a $20 billion valuation：https://techcrunch.com/2026/05/07/chinas-moonshot-ai-raises-2b-at-20b-valuation-as-demand-for-open-source-ai-skyrockets/.

The news comes amid a fresh debate：https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/13/satya-nadella-has-issued-a-shocking-warning-to-companies-using-ai/ on the value of paying AI labs like OpenAI and Anthropic for their expensive, closed-source models. Industry leaders fear that AI labs will somehow manage to extract the data their clients submit for use with their AI products like ChatGPT and Claude.

Executives are pitching：https://www.cnbc.com/video/2026/07/01/palantir-ceo-alex-karp-says-something-has-gone-completely-wrong-with-how-ai-is-sold.html their own products as alternatives, or recommending：https://www.cautiousoptimism.news/the-new-enterprise-mantra-if-i-pay-your-margin-i-keep-my-data/ companies take cheaper open source models, like those developed by DeepSeek, Z.ai, or Moonshot, and train them for their own purposes.
