Kimi K2: Open-Source Trillion-Parameter Large Language Model Released: Moonshot AI has released Kimi K2, a 1 trillion parameter (32 billion active parameters) open-source large language model (LLM). It achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on several benchmarks, including LiveCode Bench, AIME2025, and GPQA-Diamond, surpassing open-source models like DeepSeek-V3 and Qwen3. K2 also outperforms closed-source models like GPT-4.1 and Claude 4 Opus on several performance metrics. Focusing on code and agent tasks, K2 boasts powerful tool-calling capabilities, automatically understanding task environments and deciding on action plans without detailed workflow instructions. Kimi K2’s release has injected new energy into the open-source community. Its strong performance and low API pricing make it a strong competitor to Claude 4 Sonnet, and it has been hailed as the “DeepSeek moment” for code models.

Dynamic Chunking Revolutionizes Deep Learning Architecture: New research introduces H-Net, a hierarchical network architecture that replaces traditional tokenization with a dynamic chunking mechanism, learning directly from bytes and achieving true end-to-end deep learning. H-Net outperforms BPE-based Transformer language models with the same computational and data resources and demonstrates better data scaling in multi-level structures, even rivaling twice-as-large token-based Transformers. This technology excels in languages and modalities like Chinese, code, and DNA sequences, where tokenization is less critical, laying the foundation for multimodal, efficient next-generation AI capable of long-context reasoning and improved performance.

Musk Releases Grok 4, Claims it Crushes All Other Large Language Models: xAI has released Grok 4, which Musk calls “the world’s most powerful AI model.” Grok 4 achieved leading results on multiple benchmarks, including becoming the first model to exceed 50% accuracy on the “Human Level Examination” (HLE) and achieving a perfect score on AIME25. Grok 4 emphasizes the importance of incorporating tools in training and demonstrates its powerful capabilities in reasoning, multimodal understanding, programming, and drug discovery. Furthermore, Grok 4 will be used for Tesla’s voice assistant and Optimus humanoid robot, with programming models, multimodal agents, and video generation models planned for the future.

Shanghai AI Lab Proposes New POLAR Paradigm for Policy Discrimination Learning, Breaking Through Reward Model Scaling Bottleneck: Shanghai AI Lab has proposed POLAR (Policy Discrimination Learning), a new reward model training paradigm. By using contrastive learning to model the distance between policies and aligning human preferences with a small number of preference samples, POLAR addresses the scaling and generalization challenges of traditional reward models. POLAR performed exceptionally well in preference evaluation and reinforcement fine-tuning experiments, significantly surpassing SOTA reward models, especially in STEM tasks. POLAR’s scaling effect is expected to break through the last link in the reinforcement learning chain extension, bringing groundbreaking progress to large model post-training.
