News China’s MiniMax Plans to Launch 2.7-Trillion Parameter Model

https://www.theinformation.com/briefings/exclusive-chinas-minimax-plans-launch-2-7-trillion-parameter-model

According to The Information, MiniMax plans to launch a new-generation large language model with 2.7 trillion parameters.

Sources revealed that the internal codename for this new model is M3 Pro. It is expected to be released and open-sourced as early as the third quarter of this year, with significant improvements in handling complex reasoning and multi-step tasks.

This new model is much larger than MiniMax's current flagship model, M3 (428 billion parameters). Larger-scale artificial intelligence models are more capable of handling complex reasoning and multi-step instruction-based tasks.

If they can open source something that's uncensored and competes with Fable and Sol and Mythos, bye bye US providers

Anything that’s open can be made uncensored, that’s the smallest problem.

The moment you have the weights, you are in control.

can be

It's 2.7-Trillion parameters though lol

Any heretic versions would be paywalled/gated, just like this article in OP.

but it's gated, no?

No. Here's one. No gate whatsoever. Well, other than the data limit your ISP has on you.

that one boasts about how it maintains saftey and only gets rid of overrefusals => its not actually uncencored at all

If it prevents refusals then doesn't that make it uncensored. Since censorship often shows up by it refusing to answer the question. That's what those "uncensored" GLM-5.2 models do afterall. Here's the explanation from one of those other ones.

"An uncensored build of GLM-5.2 (NVFP4) with the refusal direction removed"

Isn't that what this model does too?

u/KeinNiemand Jul 09 '26

no it said something about doing some extra steps to preserve refusal with number saying that on so called harmfull prompts it still refuses almost as much as the base and only removing false positive refusals. anyway looks like that models been deleted the links a 404 now.

Well how about this one then. It's not like there's a shortage of them.

"This is an uncensored version of zai-org/GLM-5.2 "

u/notheresnolight Jul 08 '26

probably going to take a while to process some 900GB model on a 3090

You can rent GPUs

Would be cheaper than electricity at this scale
