**[Why Can Kimi Create K3? The New Member of The Dark Side of the Moon Lists Four Major Sins of Peers]** According to monitoring by Beating, Yang Xinyu, a new team member of The Dark Side of the Moon, explained why Kimi was able to launch K3. He stated that after leaving academia and entering the industry this year, he interacted with several AI companies. He summarized four common issues among peers: ① **Arrogance.** Established teams believe the AI war is over, that they’ve already won, and have lost their hunger for the future and talent. ② **Impulsiveness.** Young labs lack a solid foundation, focusing only on chasing the cutting edge. When they can’t keep up, they hastily pivot to other tracks. ③ **Cowardice.** Some teams, despite being experienced and capable, are afraid to set their sights on becoming industry leaders. ④ **Misaligned goals.** Everyone is vying for personal credit, but no one truly cares whether the company can achieve AGI. Yang Xinyu stated that what sets The Dark Side of the Moon apart is that the founding team still maintains a strong pursuit of AGI. This is also the reason he chose to join. He also shared a list of "Kimi's Five Commandments": ① A model company should focus on building models. ② Conducting research and publishing papers must involve experiments. ③ Training models should be guided by metrics. ④ Don’t force things that don’t work. ⑤ Don’t YOLO. In plain terms, it means: tell fewer stories, do more experiments. Training should be data-driven, failed approaches should be stopped promptly, and don’t gamble recklessly on intuition.
