Xiaomi has announced the open-source release of its MiMo-V2.6 series, which includes the MiMo-V2.6-Pro and MiMo-V2.6-Flash models. Additionally, the company has introduced MiMo-V2.6-Distill-Qwen-9B and provided research resources focused on reinforcement learning. The MiMo-V2.6-Pro achieved a score of 46 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, surpassing competitors Kimi K3 and GLM-5.3.
This development is significant as Xiaomi claims the MiMo-V2.6-Pro is the highest-ranked open-weight model on the index, despite leading closed-source models scoring higher at 53. The models underwent 30 reinforcement-learning steps in under six days, utilizing approximately 750,000 trajectories, with costs reported at $2.62 million for the Pro model and $850,000 for the Flash model. The release enhances capabilities in 3D spatial reasoning and multimodal perception.
Looking ahead, the introduction of these models may influence the competitive landscape of AI and reinforcement learning technologies. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
