Maybe because it's a bit of like unleashing a chaos monkey on your codebase? I tried it locally (K2.5 72B) and couldn't get anything useful.

Huh, that's not a thing?

The parent poster is probably referring to Kimi-Dev-72B¹, which is a much smaller and older model, while people are probably more familiar with the big and fairly powerful 1100B Kimi-K2.5².

Yes it was good for its time, but 10 months old now which is a long time ago in this space. It was also a fine-tune (albeit a good one) of Qwen-2.5 72B.

I wish they did more smaller models. Kimi Linear doesn't really count, it was more of a proof of concept thing.
