00:02China's Moonshot AI is negotiating revenue-sharing agreements with Microsoft,
00:08Amazon, and Alphabet's Google to host its Kimi K3 model on their cloud platforms,
00:14according to Reuters. Moonshot is seeking up to 30% of revenue generated from K3-related services
00:20on Azure, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud. The talks are at an early stage and may not result
00:27in agreements. Unresolved issues include revenue splits, data access, and auditing token usage.
00:35Moonshot did not respond to requests for comment, while Microsoft, Google, and AWS declined to comment
00:41on the potential deals. Major cloud providers are the primary route to enterprise adoption for AI
00:47models, like Kimi K3, because its 2.8 trillion parameters make self-hosting prohibitively
00:54expensive for most customers. Moonshot raised more than $2 billion in May and is preparing
01:00for a potential Hong Kong listing. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
