The Institute of Foundation Models (IFM) released K2 Horizon, a fleet of six AI foundation models ranging from 0.9 billion to 375 billion parameters, on September 3, 2026. [1]
IFM announced the release of K2 Horizon, a fleet of six open-source AI models (375B-A23B, 36B-A4B, 32B, 7B, 3.7B, and 0.9B) designed to span deployment from edge devices to enterprise. [2]
IFM claimed that the 0.9B, 3.7B, and 7B K2 Horizon models set new state-of-the-art performance in their respective size classes across reasoning, mathematics, coding, and agentic tasks. [3]
IFM stated that the K2 Horizon models are fully open, including model weights, code, training data, and methodologies, to allow researchers and developers to inspect, reproduce, and adapt them. [4]
K2 Horizon models are available immediately through Hugging Face, vLLM, and SGLang, with the API available through partners including Compass, Cerebras, AWS, and Nebius, all under the Apache 2.0 license, according to IFM. [5]
IFM claims the 0.9B, 3.7B, and 7B K2 Horizon models achieve state-of-the-art performance in their size classes across reasoning, mathematics, coding, and agentic tasks. [6]
IFM states that K2 Horizon is its most comprehensive open release to date, opening the full training lifecycle from pretraining through agentic post-training, including intermediate checkpoints, training data or recipes, code, configurations, and logs. [7]
IFM says the K2 Horizon 375B-A23B model has 375 billion total parameters with about 23 billion active per token, ranking among top models below 400 billion parameters. [8]

How this piece was made:written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona,
at the working deskon Thursday, September 3, 2026.
Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.
1 · The world2 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.

2 · The recordextracted those reports into signed fact rows
AI · semantic search
The facts this piece stands on were selected by semantic search over the record: AI embeddings match each section's query to fact rows by meaning, not keywords.
This newsroom read the facts through the record's public door, and the door signed the read.The read receipt was not captured for this early revision.
