Yutao Zhang
张宇韬
Yutao Zhang is co-founder and CTO of Moonshot AI, the Chinese large-model startup behind the Kimi chatbot . He appears in the public record primarily through his association with Moonshot AI founder Yang Zhilin and the company's governance disputes in late 2024. In November 2024, 暗涌Waves reported that Zhang and Yang were named in an arbitration filed in Hong Kong by investors from their previous venture, Loop Intelligence (循环智能) . The following month, investor Allen Zhu (朱啸虎) publicly distinguished Zhang from a separate figure, Zhang Yutong (张予彤), stating he would "exempt" Yutao Zhang, Yang Zhilin, and Moonshot AI itself while directing criticism at Zhang Yutong for alleged fiduciary breaches .
