Tencent's Hy4 preview ships 770B total parameters with 49B active under Apache 2.0 - a 1M-context text MoE with DeepSeek-style sparse attention, posted Terminal-Bench 85.4 and DeepSWE 64.3, and an OpenRouter price of $0.834/$2.501. Verified against the model card and the live OpenRouter page on August 31, 2026.
DeepSeek V4 Flash pricing split into peak and off-peak rates in August 2026, while third-party hosts kept serving the old flat rates or undercut them further. Here is every way to access DeepSeek's fast MoE coding model, from the cheapest verified hosted routes on OpenRouter and DeepInfra to the official first-party tiers, local weights, and which path makes sense for your workload.
Qwen3.8-27B is a 27B dense Apache-2.0 model that scores 61.7 on SWE-bench Pro and 42.2 on DeepSWE 1.1 - ahead of Opus 4.6 Max on both - while running on consumer hardware. Benchmarks, hardware math, and an honest when-to-use-it guide.
GLM-5.3 launched on August 14, 2026 with open weights promised in about two weeks - so the access picture is narrower than GLM-5.2's, but the free and cheap routes are already live. Here is every way to run Z.ai's newest coding model today: OpenCode Go referral credits, the GLM Coding Plan (5.3 included at no extra cost), and what to expect once the weights and third-party hosts land.
Cloudflare published the serving playbook behind Workers AI running Moonshot Kimi K2.6 and Zhipu GLM 5.2: FP8 KV caches double Kimi's resident context to 1.37M tokens, INT4 weights shrink GLM 5.2's checkpoint 40%, and a page-tagging integrity check protects the shared cache at under 1% overhead. The numbers show what actually matters when open frontier models run on GPU fleets.
Alibaba released Qwen 3.8 Max on August 3, 2026 - a 2.4T-parameter MoE with 95B active per token, a 1M context window, and $2/$6 per million tokens on QwenCloud. It leads PaperBench at 93.0, and the weights open next week.
Kimi K3 open weights need roughly 1.5TB of VRAM, which does not fit on a B200 node. That forces a real hardware decision: B300, two B200 nodes, or AMD's MI355X. Here is the head-to-head with verified specs, the Wafer benchmark, and what it costs per token.
Dario Amodei published Anthropic's stance on open-weights models this week - no total ban, but support for chip export controls, distillation crackdowns, and mandatory safety testing. HN responded with 800+ comments calling it regulatory capture. Here is what the CEO said, what the thread argued, and why the debate matters for every developer deploying AI.
Moonshot AI's Kimi Linear paper introduces KDA, a hybrid linear attention that beats full attention at all scales - 75% less KV cache, 6x decoding at 1M context, and open-source checkpoints.
Moonshot AI released the full Kimi K3 weights on HuggingFace today - 2.8T parameters, 1M context, native MXFP4 quantization, ~1.63TB download. The HN community reaction, what the license really says, and why this matters for the open-weights AI market.
Compare every verified Kimi K3 access route, including Moonshot, Together, Fireworks, Baseten, Modal, Vercel AI Gateway, Cloudflare, RunPod, SiliconFlow, OpenRouter, and OpenCode Go.
Moonshot AI releases Kimi K3 with 2.8 trillion parameters, 1M context window, and Delta Attention architecture. Here's what developers need to know about pricing, performance, and where it fits in the frontier model landscape.
Martin Alderson's argument for why open-weights models like GLM 5.2 will compress frontier lab margins is sparking debate on HN. Here is what the thesis actually says, where HN agrees and disagrees, and why it matters for developers choosing models.
