Goldman Sachs Comments on Kimi K3: Chinese Open-Source Models Reach a Critical Inflection Point in Global Adoption, with Intense Competition in High-End Models

Goldman Sachs stated that Kimi K3 has emerged with 2.8 trillion parameters, raising its API pricing to $2.30 per million tokens—the highest price yet for a Chinese AI model—marking a shift among domestic AI firms from a 'price war' to a battle for 'pricing power.'
