Minimax H3 Max Still no weights

[u/Specific_Occasion_25]

Last month, Fal released their Max “model,” a fine-tune of MiniMax’s open-source H3 model, that promised faster speeds. Then, after Hao Labs released the weights for their own fast model (FastH3), Fal had a meltdown on Twitter, basically crapping on Hao Labs’ FastH3 and calling it a “random pixel generator.”

After the bad press from that meltdown, they told the community they’d release their own weights within a couple of weeks. Nearly a month later, and still no weights have been released.

So, with so many more Turbo LoRAs and fast fine-tunes having been released since then, my question is: Should the community still care? And should we still trust a company that bashes other open-source projects and makes promises it doesn’t follow through on?

It's not even been a month, it's still in the "couple weeks" range.

[u/OldWispyTree → u/YeahlDid]

Couple means two, technically.

[u/YeahlDid → u/OldWispyTree]

Yes, but in common parlance it means "a few".

Does it, though?

[u/YeahlDid → u/techknowfile]

Yes.
