💥 Kimi K2 Just Smoked GPT-5

The smartest AIs now reason longer, not bigger.

In partnership with

Moonshot just dropped Kimi K2 - it out-thinks GPT-5 and Sonnet 4.5. Nvidia’s CEO says China will win the AI race. And Google quietly unlocked global no-code AI. The question now: who’s building the smartest brains, not the biggest ones?

AI INSIGHTS

kimi-k2-thinking-agent-launch

Kimi drops its best thinking model. It reasons step by step while using tools. It can chain 200 - 300 calls without you touching it.

What’s new

  • Test-time scaling. More thinking tokens. More tool steps.

  • Live on kimi.com chat. Full agent mode soon. API is open.

Benchmarks that matter:

  • HLE w/ tools: 44.9%

  • BrowseComp: 60.2%

  • SWE-bench Verified: 71.3%

  • LiveCodeBench v6: 83.1%

What it actually does:

  • Plans. Searches. Browses. Codes. Repeats until solved.

  • Handles long, messy tasks. Keeps context across hundreds of steps.

  • Ships front-end and component work from a single prompt.

Why it matters: Reasoning strength is moving to inference time. Not just model size. Open agents that think longer and use tools better will win real work. Even Nvidia’s Jensen Huang says China may “win the AI race” thanks to cheaper power and faster scaling - proof that compute and energy access now decide who leads next.

AI DISCOVERY

kosmos-ai-scientist-autonomous-discovery

FutureHouse just launched Kosmos, a next-gen AI Scientist that reads, analyzes, and discovers on its own.

Built on structured world models, it can connect insights from hundreds of research paths without losing focus. One run can:

  • Read 1,500+ papers

  • Execute 42,000+ lines of code

  • Do 6 months of PhD-level work in a day

Kosmos has already made 7 discoveries in neuroscience, genetics, and materials science. Three replicated human findings that weren’t public yet. With 79% accuracy and fully traceable reports, it’s pushing AI toward real scientific autonomy. Runs on Edison Scientific, FutureHouse’s new spinout. Free for academics, $200 per run.

Why it matters: This isn’t a chatbot. It’s a research engine. Kosmos signals the start of autonomous science - where AI runs full experiments, connects data across disciplines, and generates new knowledge. If ChatGPT gave us AI students, Kosmos just gave us AI scientists.
