Minimax is releasing its new M3 model with unspecified new features.
A demonstration shows 16 local AI agents streaming simultaneously using MiniMax M2.7 NVFP4 on two Nvidia GB10 chips, with no cloud APIs required.
A user shares a month-long comparison of five Chinese coding LLMs (Kimi K2.6, GLM-5.1, MiMo V2.5 Pro, MiniMax 2.7, DeepSeek V4 Pro) on a TypeScript/Next.js codebase, rating each in categories like frontend, backend, code review, all-rounder, and reasoning. They note MiniMax 2.7 achieves ~90% of Opus 4.6 quality at ~7% cost and speculate whether the upcoming MiniMax 3.0 will close gaps in planning and test coverage to become the top spot.
Nicholas Carlini's project implements a 2-ply minimax chess engine using 84,688 regular expressions, executed sequentially to play valid chess moves. The post explains the design of a regular expression computer that interprets instructions.
The tweet claims that an uncensored version of Opus 4.6, derived from Minimax-M3.0 and created by alignnai, will soon run locally on 128GB Macs and 24GB VRAM GPUs.
The author conducted a comparative evaluation of four domestic AI models: DeepSeek V4, Kimi K2.6, GLM-5.1, and MiniMax M2.7. The analysis covers their strengths and weaknesses regarding cost, long-context processing, coding stability, and reasoning performance, offering specific recommendations on how to route tasks involving large document analysis, long-running background jobs, and bulk content generation.
MiniMax published a technical blog post providing an in-depth analysis of the systematic vocabulary degradation issue behind its M2 series large models' inability to output specific personal names. It reveals parameter shifts caused by a disconnect in data coverage between pre-training and post-training stages, and proposes an effective solution involving full-scale synthetic data for remediation.
Kimi 2.6 just dropped with a huge promo push; you can now run it free on Cloudflare. Kilo Code also offers unlimited free access to MiniMax 2.7 and the Doubao engine via the Kilo Gateway.
MiniMax launches MaxHermes, described as the world's first cloud sandbox Hermes Agent, offering a new infrastructure solution for AI agent deployment and execution.
