MiniMax-01

MiniMax
MiniMax-01 refers to the text component of MiniMax’s earlier 01 family. MiniMax-Text-01 uses a 456B MoE base with 45.9B active parameters and up to 1M tokens of context. Its focus is long text work and reasoning, while image and video output belong to other family components.
MiniMax says MiniMax M1 was developed from this text model.
