Most of the time the answer is “cool demo, doesn’t affect my day job.” This time it’s different. MAI-Thinking-1 — Microsoft’s first reasoning model — just went into […]
Demo code located at https://github.com/taswar/KimiFoundryDemo There are a lot of AI model announcements these days. But every now and then one lands that feels immediately practical for real engineering work. Kimi K2.7 Code from Moonshot AI showing up in Microsoft Foundry feels like one of those releases. Microsoft and Moonshot AI have made Kimi K2.7 […]
Sample code located at https://github.com/taswar/CohereCommandAPlusDemo Enterprise AI teams have a familiar problem.
