MiniMax H3 ref2v character swaps spark debate on grounding and narrowing the latent space
Ambitious_Fold_2874 · reddit · 2026-09-20
A Redditor found MiniMax H3's ref2v character swaps surprisingly coherent even at low resolutions when given both a reference video and image, and generalized the observation: richer context 'grounds' the model and narrows the latent space, while asking it to invent whole scenes leads to artifacts and drift. Drawing an analogy to vague LLM prompts ('make me rich'), the author asks what this phenomenon is called and what automatable strategies exist to add grounding without hand-crafting perfect prompts.
