Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence

We introduce Kimi K3, a 2.8T parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 104 billion activated parameters, native vision capabilities, and a 1-million-token context window. Kimi K3 is built on Kimi Delta Attention and Attention Residuals, which improve information flow across sequence length and model depth. Together with Stable LatentMoE, which effectively activates 16 of 896 routed experts per token, and refined training and data recipes, these advances yield an approximately 2.5x improvement in overall scaling efficiency over Kimi K2. Post-training highlights reinforcement learning across general, agentic, and coding domains and multiple reasoning-effort levels, enabling compositional generalization and robust long-horizon execution. At 2.8T scale, Kimi K3 is supported by infrastructure advances in multiple areas: algorithm-system co-design for KDA, perfectly balanced expert-parallel training with efficient memory management, million-token agentic RL with persistent rollout and sandbox states, and deployment innovations. Extensive evaluations show that Kimi K3 achieves frontier-level performance across long-horizon coding, agentic, knowledge, reasoning, and vision tasks. While its overall performance still trails the most powerful proprietary models, namely Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol, Kimi K3 consistently outperforms other open and proprietary models evaluated in our suite. We release the full Kimi K3 model weights to facilitate future research and accelerate the broader deployment and adoption of frontier intelligence.

MetaPS: Adaptive Programmatic Strategy Selection for Market Agents

No single market strategy always wins: momentum, mean reversion, risk control,and event-driven rules can each succeed or fail as market conditions change.Rather than asking large language models to directly generate market actions,we study an executable decision paradigm where an agent selects from a library of programmatic strategies, each implemented as a code module mapping market observations to actions.We propose \textbf{MetaPS}, a simulation-guided framework for adaptive programmatic strategy selection. MetaPS rolls out candidate strategies in simulated or backtested markets, identifies states where particular strategies lead to better future outcomes, and converts these state--strategy pairs into supervised fine-tuning data. During inference, the simulator is no longer queried: MetaPS observes only the current market state and candidate strategy context, selects a suitable strategy program, and the selected program produces the final action. Experiments on multi-stock trading and a controlled goods-exchange sandbox show that MetaPS consistently improves across model scales from 0.8B to 9B parameters. It outperforms fixed-strategy baselines, direct decision-making agents, and prompted API-based LLM agents; in several settings, compact fine-tuned models even surpass stronger API models. These results demonstrate that market simulations can provide scalable and targeted supervision for learning adaptive, interpretable, and executable strategy selection.

FinEvo: From Isolated Backtests to Ecological Market Games for Multi-Agent Financial Strategy Evolution

Conventional financial strategy evaluation relies on isolated backtests in static environments. Such evaluations assess each policy independently, overlook correlations and interactions, and fail to explain why strategies ultimately persist or vanish in evolving markets. We shift to an ecological perspective, where trading strategies are modeled as adaptive agents that interact and learn within a shared market. Instead of proposing a new strategy, we present FinEvo, an ecological game formalism for studying the evolutionary dynamics of multi-agent financial strategies. At the individual level, heterogeneous ML-based traders-rule-based, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and large language model (LLM) agents-adapt using signals such as historical prices and external news. At the population level, strategy distributions evolve through three designed mechanisms-selection, innovation, and environmental perturbation-capturing the dynamic forces of real markets. Together, these two layers of adaptation link evolutionary game theory with modern learning dynamics, providing a principled environment for studying strategic behavior. Experiments with external shocks and real-world news streams show that FinEvo is both stable for reproducibility and expressive in revealing context-dependent outcomes. Strategies may dominate, collapse, or form coalitions depending on their competitors-patterns invisible to static backtests. By reframing strategy evaluation as an ecological game formalism, FinEvo provides a unified, mechanism-level protocol for analyzing robustness, adaptation, and emergent dynamics in multi-agent financial markets, and may offer a means to explore the potential impact of macroeconomic policies and financial regulations on price evolution and equilibrium.
