cocktailpeanut · x · 2026-08-05
Independent developers shared a practical guide for running the MiniMax H3 (Hailuo H3) model locally on Apple Silicon chips, specifically comparing performance between M3 Ultra and M5 Max.
Users can try the H3 model using Pinokio, a one-click AI software installation tool, combined with the Phosphene app. Note that the H3 model component must be downloaded separately via the sidebar while the app is closed before configuration and testing.
