Sources: Moonshot AI told investors it topped $1B ARR in August, up from $300M in June, driven by its Kimi K3 release; it aims to hit $2B ARR by the end of 2026 (Bloomberg)

Moonshot AI reported $1 billion ARR in August, up from $300 million in June, driven by the Kimi K3 launch, and aims for $2 billion by 2026’s end. Anthropic’s threat-intelligence report showed its Claude model was blocked from cyber-attacks, influence campaigns, surveillance, biological-weapon research and other illicit uses, leading the firm to terminate ambiguous projects. OpenAI executives discussed decelerating advanced AI development and requested congressional guidance on antitrust issues related to a potential industry-wide pause.
