News has emerged about the release of Kimi K2.5, a new iteration of the Kimi language model. The announcement was made through unofficial channels, specifically on Reddit, with a user reporting the model's availability on the official Kimi website.

Availability and Open Source

Currently, Kimi K2.5 has not yet been officially announced, and it is unclear whether it will be released under an open-source license, unlike the previous version. Availability is limited to the official website, suggesting that the model is still undergoing internal evaluation.

For those evaluating on-premise deployments, there are trade-offs to consider. AI-RADAR offers analytical frameworks on /llm-onpremise to evaluate these aspects.
