Moonshot AI Releases Kimi K2 Thinking Open-Source AI Model Built for Complex Reasoning

Moonshot AI launched Kimi K2 Thinking, an open-source AI model designed as a "thinking agent" capable of executing 200-300 sequential tool calls to solve complex problems without human intervention. The trillion-parameter model scored 71.3 on coding benchmarks and features advanced reasoning capabilities, representing Moonshot's strategic pivot from competing on speed to sophisticated autonomous AI performance. This release positions the Beijing-based company in the global race toward agentic AI systems that can independently plan and execute multi-step tasks using digital tools.
