You don't need to use SOTA models all the time.
MiniMax M2 is (currently) a free model and it's good at:
- Writing boilerplate
- Fixing bugs / finding the source of the problem
- Writing docs
- Extending projects in a way your code remains clean

This year, Kilo is proud to sponsor Advent of Code! It's a great way for you to stretch your own engineering skills - so we decided to test our agent's skills as well.
Will Kilo be able to conquer all 12 challenges? What else should we try? Different models? Build an AoC specific mode? Let us know👇
