A developer has open-sourced a Codex skill on GitHub that automates the deployment of the MiniMax H3 Turbo model for video generation on Google Colab G4 (RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, 96GB VRAM).
- Performance: Using a 4-step optimized H3 LoRA workflow, SageAttention, and INT8 quantization, it can generate 5s 480p video (T2V/I2V) in under 20 seconds.
- Automation: The script handles G4 allocation, environment setup, ComfyUI launch, generation, artifact download, validation, and instance shutdown.
- Cost details: Colab G4 currently appears to be limited to Pro+ users. Subscribing to Pro+ via the Turkey region costs around $17/month, providing roughly 67 hours of G4 compute time.
