The U.S. Treasury has threatened sanctions against Chinese AI company Moonshot after the White House accused it of illegally distilling Anthropic's Fable model. The dispute intensifies a broader Washington debate over the security risks of Chinese open-source AI models.
Chinese AI companies Moonshot and Alibaba have unveiled models—Kimi K3 and Qwen—that they claim match the performance of top US models from OpenAI and Anthropic at a fraction of the cost, signaling a narrowing gap in AI leadership.
Chinese company Moonshot AI released Kimi 2.0, a powerful and free AI model capable of coding, music composition, and more, prompting concerns about job displacement and societal over-reliance on AI.
Moonshot is launching Kimi 3, a massive open AI model with 2-3 trillion parameters, expected to rival top Western models like Anthropic’s Opus 4.8. This could democratize access to cutting-edge AI technology globally.
