Moonshot AI dropped Kimi K2.6 today and the numbers are hard to ignore. One trillion parameters total, 32 billion active per token across 384 experts, 256K context window, and native multimodal input. It scores 58.6 on SWE-Bench Pro versus GPT-5.4's 57.7 and Claude Opus 4.6's...
Alibaba released Qwen3.6-27B on April 22. Dense architecture. Open weights. 77.2% on SWE-bench Verified, within 3.7 points of Claude Opus 4.6. On SkillsBench, it scores 48.2% versus its own 397B MoE predecessor's 30.0%. That's a 77% improvement with 14.8x fewer parameters. Let...
Google DeepMind released Gemma 4 on April 2 with four model sizes (E2B, E4B, 26B MoE, 31B Dense) under Apache 2.0. Multimodal (text, vision, audio). 256K context. Native thinking and tool-calling optimized for agentic workflows. Day-zero ecosystem support across vLLM, llama.cp...
Hugging Face published its Summer 2026 State of Open Models report on August 14, and one statistic in it went almost entirely unremarked in the coverage. By July 2026, agents rather than humans became the Hub's primary users. Claude Code alone accounted for 44.4% of all agent...
Xiaomi released MiMo-V2.5-Pro, a 1.02 trillion parameter mixture-of-experts model (42B active) with 1M token context, fully MIT licensed. In benchmarks, it achieves 63.8% success on agentic tasks using 40-60% fewer tokens than Claude Opus 4.6 or GPT-5.4 for comparable results....
GLM-5.1 from Zhipu AI scored 58.4% on SWE-bench Pro. GPT-5.4 scored 57.7%. Claude Opus 4.6 scored 57.3%. That's the first time an open-weight model has ever topped a major coding benchmark against the best proprietary models. The specs matter. GLM-5.1 is a 754B-parameter mixtu...
