Moonshot AI debuts Kimi K2.5, most powerful open source LLM beating Opus 4.5 with swarm of parallel agents

Chinese company Moonshot AI upgraded its open-sourced Kimi K2 model, transforming it into a coding and vision model with an architecture that supports an Agent Swarm orchestration. The new model, Moonshot Kimi K2.5, could offer a compelling orchestration option for enterprises that, instead of building an overarching framework that decides when agents complete a task, want agents to pass off actions to the next agent automatically. The company characterized Kimi K2.5 as an “all-in-one model” that supports both visual and text inputs, allowing users to leverage the model for more “visual” coding projects.Moonshot did not publicly disclose K2.5’s parameter count, but the Kimi K2 model, which it is based on, had 1 trillion total parameters and 32 billion activated parameters thank [...]
