Diabolicor · reddit · 2026-08-02
A developer has uncovered architectural details of the upcoming MiniMax H3 model within a GitHub PR for ComfyUI.
According to commit records, MiniMax H3 appears to use Alibaba's Qwen3-VL-32B as its text encoder (utilizing 50 layers) and adopts a split Transformer architecture. The original PR title was allegedly modified to avoid drawing attention.
