Kimi K2.6 is the new SOTA open model in Vision and Document Arena, with solid gains since Kimi K2.5: - #1# open on Vision Arena (#15# overall), +14 over #2# Kimi K2.5 (Thinking) - #1# open on Document Arena (#8# overall), +9 over K2.5 and on par with proprietary models like Muse Spark and Gemini 3.1 Pro. Huge congrats again to the @Kimi_Moonshot team on the open source progress!

Kimi K2.6 is free on Nous Portal for the next 24 hours Made possible by @vercel's AI Gateway & @Kimi_Moonshot Run 'hermes update', then 'hermes model' and select Kimi K2.6 to try out one of the most impressive open model releases ever

Kimi K2.6 is now available on Bitdeer AI Cloud. Built for advanced coding, long-horizon execution, and more capable agent workflows, Kimi K2.6 gives developers and teams another powerful model option to build, test, and scale on our platform. Key highlights: 🔹Strong long-horizon coding capabilities 🔹Advanced technical and frontend code generation 🔹Better handling of complex, multi-step tasks 🔹Well suited for research, analysis, and structured generation Run Kimi K2.6 on our Model Studio today 👉: #KimiK26# #ModelStudio# #AIModels# #agenticai#

Kimi K2.6 autonomously overhauled exchange-core, an 8-year-old open-source financial matching engine. Over a 13-hour execution, the model iterated through 12 optimization strategies, initiating over 1,000 tool calls to precisely modify more than 4,000 lines of code. Acting as an expert systems architect, Kimi K2.6 analyzed CPU and allocation flame graphs to pinpoint hidden bottlenecks and boldly reconfigured the core thread topology (from 4ME+2RE to 2ME+1RE). Despite the engine already operating near its performance limits, Kimi K2.6 extracted a 185% medium throughput leap (from 0.43 to 1.24 MT/s) and a 133% performance throughput gain (soaring from 1.23 to 2.86 MT/s).
