Description
SummaryKimi K3 is Moonshot AI's 2.8T-parameter open-weight multimodal reasoning model, designed for complex coding, knowledge work, and long-horizon agentic workflows. It excels at repository-scale development, tool use, debugging, and iterative problem solving across text, images, logs, tests, and runtime feedback. Built with KDA and Attention Residuals for improved computational efficiency, Kimi K3 delivers strong performance on advanced engineering and multimodal reasoning tasks, making it well suited for autonomous coding agents and large-scale production workflows.DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 is the October 17, 2026 snapshot of DeepSeek’s cost-efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, built on its innovative Causal Encoder-Decoder (CED) architecture. Featuring 552B total parameters with 8B activated for input and 16B for output, it combines efficient inference with native multimodal understanding through jointly trained text and visual representations. Optimized for coding, terminal and computer-use agents, and long-horizon workflows, the model introduces compressed KV caching that reduces cache memory usage to approximately one-quarter of the previous Flash generation. DeepSeek reports that it surpasses V4 Pro in performance, inference speed, and task completion time, making it well suited for cost-efficient autonomous agents, complex software engineering, and long-context analysis.Gemini 3.1 Flash Image served from Google Vertex AI. Billed per image at US$0.067. Call it through /v1/chat/completions with stream set to false; the image is returned in the message content as a base64 data URI. Maximum output resolution is 2K. A request for a larger size, such as 4K or 4096x4096, returns a 2K image with the same aspect ratio at the same price. When a size is reduced, the response carries an X-Image-Resolution-Capped header with the requested and delivered size, for example 4096x4096->2048x2048.
