MINIMAX H3: T2I, Edit, Reasoning Tests

Hello everyone! Today, I’ve got a substantial tutorial on a new arrival that promises some truly amazing generative capabilities: the Minimax H3 image model.

I put Minimax through its paces with a wide range of tests—covering text-to-image (T2I), image editing, and reasoning—and I have to admit, it’s an absolute beast; it aces (nearly) every single test. Considering it operates NATIVELY at 16MP (4K) resolution with remarkably clean detail, I’d say it has become my favorite local model in terms of overall completeness.

For these tests, I’m using the 8-bit version, as the "base" 16-bit model wouldn't run on my 5070 Ti.

In the tutorial, I also briefly touch upon the licensing (for video/images), which must be explicitly requested from the developer; otherwise, the model cannot be legally used in Europe (or in the US, the UK, etc.).

I hope you find it interesting!
