BEIJING, Oct ‌26 (Reuters) - Chinese ​artificial ​intelligence startup Moonshot AI apologised on Monday for ‌rate limiting and unnecessary quota ⁠consumption after its Kimi K3.1 Pro ‌launch.

Here are some details:

• ‌Beijing-based Moonshot said on its Kimi X account that it was ​offering to reset the monthly quota of all subscribers ⁠by 25%, which it said equals one ​week's usage

• Subscribers with usage below 25% reset to zero

• ​Moonshot said it ‌also adjusted parameters to reduce unnecessary subagent calls ⁠and output length, referring to the delegation of tasks among AI ⁠agents and the total number of tokens ​generated in response to a prompt

• Moonshot previously had issues with computing ‌capacity after K3 was launched

• Chinese AI labs are ‌suffering from computing shortages ⁠following US chip ‌export controls
