Dark side of the moon: Kimi releases visual thinking model k1, leading the industry in multiple science tests

On December 16, Jinshi Data News, according to the news from the dark side of the moon, Kimi released the visual thinking model k1. The k1 model is built on reinforcement learning technology, natively supporting end-to-end image understanding and thinking chain technology, and extending its capabilities to more basic scientific fields beyond mathematics. In benchmarking tests of basic scientific disciplines such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the performance of the first-generation k1 model exceeded that of the global benchmark models OpenAI o1, GPT-4o, and Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
