Kimi K3 (MoE, multimodal)
Moonshot AI Kimi K3 — 2.8T total parameters, 104B active, 896 routed experts with 16 selected per token and 2 shared. Kimi Delta Attention plus gated MLA across 93 layers, 1M context, 160K vocabulary, MXFP4 weights and MXFP8 activations from quantization-aware training. Text, image, and video via the MoonViT-V2 encoder. `UD-IQ1_S` (594GB) is the smallest quant; `UD-Q2_K_XL` (861GB) is the size/quality balance point. Both exceed any single machine, so whole-model serving means a pipeline cluster; a lone host runs it as distributed expert extraction instead.
