Moonshot AI has released Kimi K2, a 1 trillion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model trained on 15.5 trillion tokens using the new MuonClip optimizer, achieving state-of-the-art results on benchmarks like SWE-Bench Verified (65.8%) and TAU2 (58.4%). This model is competitive with GPT-4.1 and Sonnet 4 on non-thinking tasks and is available under an MIT license. Meanwhile, xAI announced Grok-4, noted for its "LEAST censored frontier model" status and strong long-context performance but criticized for rushed post-training. Mistral AI updated its Devstral 2507 models with improved performance and cost efficiency. The community is excited about the potential of the MuonClip optimizer, which may surpass the long-standing AdamW optimizer in machine learning.
