In a recent development, Xiaomi has unveiled its MiMo-V2-Pro AI model, clarifying that it is not the long-anticipated DeepSeek V4 as initially speculated. The MiMo team, led by former DeepSeek researcher Luo Fuli, explained that the model, known as Hunter Alpha, is an early test version of MiMo-V2-Pro, designed to enhance AI agent capabilities for executing complex tasks with minimal human intervention.
Following the success of DeepSeek’s previous models, DeepSeek-V3 and R1, the tech community has been eagerly awaiting the release of DeepSeek-V4. Xiaomi’s announcement has shed light on the matter, revealing that the Hunter Alpha model, which appeared on the OpenRouter platform without clear attribution, is in fact their own MiMo-V2-Pro.
Notably, Xiaomi’s move coincides with the widespread adoption of the OpenClaw open-source agent framework in China, indicating a strategic alignment with the evolving tech landscape. MiMo-V2-Pro is set to collaborate with major agent frameworks, offering developers worldwide free access for a week to explore its potential.
This revelation has generated positive market sentiment towards Xiaomi’s AI advancements, reflected in the company’s share price. With the unveiling of MiMo-V2-Pro, Xiaomi positions itself as a key player in the AI innovation landscape.
