"Might be able to exceed Kimi" sounds like he's already come to terms with they won't beat Chinese models on capability and wants to try his luck on efficiency.... in a world where Deepseek exist lolWait wasnt he boasting about a 6T model for grok 5 not long ago? now its a third of what he promised?!!
Must be pretty demoralizing considering they just spent $60B buying a Kimi 2.5 wrapper.
