1. this is apparently MiniMax's "launch week" - they did M1 on Monday and Hailuo 2 on Tuesday (https://news.smol.ai/issues/25-06-16-chinese-models https://news.smol.ai/issues/25-06-16-chinese-models). remains to be seen if they can keep up the pace of model releases for the rest of this week - these 2 were big ones, they aren't yet known for much else beyond llm and video models. just watch https://x.com/MiniMax__AI https://x.com/MiniMax__AI for announcements.
2. minimax m1's tech report is worthwhile: https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/MiniMax-M1/blob/main/MiniMax_M1_tech_report.pdf https://github.com/MiniMax-AI/MiniMax-M1/blob/main/MiniMax_M... while they may not be the SOTA open weights model, they do make some very big/notable claims on lightning attention and their GRPO variant (CISPO).

- behnamoh 1y ago> they did M1 on Monday and Hailuo 2 on Tuesday It would've been fun to see them name their models like Apple chips: M1, M1 Pro, M1 Ultra.
- plufz 1y agoYeah MiniMax M1 certainly directed my thoughts to Mac mini M1. :)
- drewbitt 1y agoThey are also known for audio models, having the best TTS on some leaderboards (and my personal favorite) https://artificialanalysis.ai/text-to-speech/arena?tab=leaderboard https://artificialanalysis.ai/text-to-speech/arena?tab=leade...
