- Praise: If Kimi can deliver similar functionality at 1/5th the price, it’s a game-changer that could democratize access to powerful AI tools.
- Praise: The potential for low-cost, near-frontier models means more players can enter the AI space, pushing innovation forward.
- Praise: Kimi's ability to run Python code in the background and execute scheduled tasks shows promise for deep workflows.
