The Future of AI Agents: Kimi K2.5 and the Power of Parallel Swarms

Описание: In this episode, we take a deep dive into the technical report for Kimi K2.5, a groundbreaking open-source multimodal agentic model developed to push the boundaries of General Agentic Intelligence.

We explore how Kimi K2.5 moves beyond the limitations of sequential reasoning to embrace parallel execution, allowing it to solve complex, multi-branch problems with unprecedented speed and efficiency.

What We Discuss in This Episode:

• Native Multimodal Foundation: Why Kimi K2.5 uses "early vision fusion" instead of adding vision as a late-stage add-on, allowing text and vision to naturally co-optimise during pre-training.

• The "Zero-Vision SFT" Breakthrough: How the researchers discovered that text-only supervised fine-tuning alone can activate a model's visual reasoning and tool-use capabilities.

• Agent Swarm & PARL: A look at the Parallel-Agent Reinforcement Learning (PARL) framework that enables a central "orchestrator" to delegate tasks to a swarm of specialised sub-agents.

• Performance at Scale: How Kimi K2.5 achieves 4.5× latency reduction in complex search tasks and its state-of-the-art performance across coding, video understanding, and real-world "computer-use" benchmarks.

• Real-World Stress Tests: We break down the incredible qualitative example of Kimi K2.5 analysing a complete 24-hour playthrough of Black Myth: Wukong across 32 separate 1080p videos simultaneously.

• Cross-Modal Learning: The surprising finding that training on visual tasks actually improves a model’s textual knowledge and reasoning performance.

Kimi K2.5 represents a major step toward autonomous systems that can think, see, and act in parallel. By open-sourcing these post-trained checkpoints, the Kimi Team is inviting the global research community to help build the next generation of scalable agentic intelligence.
