AFAICT, kimi k2 was the first to apply this technique [1]. I wonder if Anthropic came up with it independently or if they trained a model in 5 months after seeing kimi’s performance.

OpenAI has been doing this since at least O3 in January, Anthropic has been doing it since 4 in May.

And the July Kimi K2 release wasn't a thinking model, the model in that article was released less than 20 days ago.
