Moonshot AI released the Kimi K2, a 1-trillion parameter ultra-sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with the MuonClip optimizer and a large-scale agentic data pipeline using over 20,000 tools. Shortly after, Alibaba updated its Qwen3 model with the Qwen3-235B-A22B variant, which outperforms Kimi K2 and other top models on benchmarks like GPQA and AIME despite being 4.25x smaller. Alibaba also released Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B, a MoE model specialized for coding with a 1 million token context window. Google DeepMind launched Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite, a faster and more cost-efficient model outperforming previous versions in coding, math, and multimodal tasks. The MoE architecture is becoming mainstream, with models like Mistral, DeepSeek, and Kimi K2 leading the trend. In mathematics, an advanced Gemini model achieved a gold medal level score at the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), marking a first for AI. An OpenAI researcher noted their IMO model "knew" when it did not have a correct solution, highlighting advances in model reasoning and self-awareness.

Stripe launched their Agent SDK, enabling AI-native shopping experiences like Perplexity Shopping for US Pro members, featuring one-click checkout and free shipping via the Perplexity Merchant Program. Mistral AI released the Pixtral Large 124B multi-modal image model, now on Hugging Face and supported by Le Chat for image generation. Cerebras Systems offers a public inference endpoint for Llama 3.1 405B with a 128k context window and high throughput. Claude 3.6 shows improvements over Claude 3.5 but with subtle hallucinations. The Bi-Mamba 1-bit architecture improves LLM efficiency. The wandb SDK is preinstalled on Google Colab, and Pixtral Large is integrated into AnyChat and supported by vLLM for efficient model usage.
