Xiaomi drops a NEW MiMo-V2.6 Pro series!?

From the creator

MiMo V2.6 Pro vs Grok 4.7: games, websites, 3D models, robot simulations, creative tools, open weights and the price gap. Xiaomi's Flash model made some of my favorite demos. Here's what impressed me, what broke, and which I'd try first. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE TO BYTEFORWARD AI news, coding agents, model comparisons, benchmarks, and the things people are actually building: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGGHPOAzUaKsSc2yjsOeAFQ?sub_confirmation=1 Both show a rounded 46 on Artificial Analysis. Standard API output: MiMo Pro $0.87 vs Grok $6 per million tokens (USD; Grok short context). Total task costs vary. This is commentary on selected demos, with limited play checks—not a controlled benchmark. Pro, Flash and the 9B distill are separate models.

AI Maker Residence at KOKO

The third AI workshop taught by our legendary teacher, Nick Sarafa. In one of the last events we did an asset manager raised an additional £25M on their fund within a space of 9 months. This is a full-day hands-on training workshop for purposeful co-creation with AI using Claude Code. Imagine having access to hundreds of billions of dollars of computing power and knowing exactly how to make it work for you through the power of super intelligence. One person did.
