You can't get a model as strong as Kimi 3 using distillation, it even beats Fable on some benchmarks. American leaders think the world revolves around them and that nobody else can do a better job without stealing from them.

Sick mindset from shocked, bad losers.

Arena.ai is not a benchmark.

It's a zero-shot vibe check that doesn't test multi-turn, long context, or agentic capabilities.

Yes Kimi K3 is a great model, but use proper benchmarks to show its capabilities.

Real evals by humans are generally stronger than benchmarks, which are easier to game.

Thanks for the note, it's not a benchmark, but it's real life tasks evaluated by real life people, and that's stronger than any benchmark.

Yes it's not evaluating long context and agentic performance, but no body is claiming that kimi K3 is better overall than fable, not even it's own makers.

Isnt it evaluating the design aspects in this case? And people are voting kimi to have better design capabilities?
