Re: Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence
#172This is far too expensive. Why would I use this over a frontier model at these prices.
If that's true, then the price makes sense

> > K3 pushes the boundary of end-to-end knowledge work. On the GDPval-AA v2 leaderboard, Kimi K3 scores 1687. The benchmark evaluates AI models on real-world tasks across 44 occupations and 9 major industries; Kimi K3 ranks behind only Claude Fable 5 Max and GPT-5.6 Sol Max, and ahead of Claude Opus 4.8 Max at 1600. This is the same benchmark where Sonnet 5 outperforms Opus 4.8 max. Like all model releases, the benc…
(On several other benchmarks, it costs more, takes longer, and does worse.)

#175Pelican: https://tools.simonwillison.net/markdown-svg-renderer#url=ht... - rendered via the OpenRouter API: https://openrouter.ai/moonshotai/kimi-k3 95 input, 16,658 output = 25 cents! https://www.llm-prices.com/#it=95&ot=16658&ic=3&oc=15 (13,241 of those were reasoning tokens.) I think that's the most expensive pelican I've rendered through a Chinese model so far.

#176Why do most LLMs insist on a login, even for a free trial? I entered a question to try it, but as soon as I hit enter it wants my phone number for a login. No thanks.

#178Earlier quoted context omitted.
No, you can't divide the entire size by the expert count. A lot of weights are constant for all tokens, so total active count is ((2800-(shared)/896)*16 + (shared))
TIL, that makes a lot of sense, and thanks for the correction.
