#223 Max: Kimi K2 Thinking – The Open-Source AI That's Competing with GPT-5 (Part 1)

Open source has caught up... again. A new model, Kimi K2 Thinking, has landed and is now ranked #2 globally—beating Grok 4, Claude 4.5 Sonnet, and Gemini 2.5 Pro. 🤯 This is the new "DeepSeek moment."

We’ll talk about:

  • A deep dive into the stunning capabilities of the new open-source Kimi K2 Thinking model (Part 1).
  • Real-World "One-Shot" Builds: We tasked it with building a drag-and-drop website builder (like Wix), a Photoshop clone with a working layer system, and an interactive 3D map of Tokyo.
  • The Impossible Test: Kimi K2 successfully built a complex 3D fluid dynamics simulation—a test that Grok 4, Claude 4.5, and Gemini 2.5 Pro all failed.
  • Pro-Level Business Use: We fed it 3 dense financial reports (PDFs) from Google, Nvidia, and Amazon. It created a 100% accurate, interactive HTML report in minutes.
  • Plus, it passed the "hallucination test" by correctly identifying that "Stable Diffusion 5" doesn't exist.
