I was always interested in the medical field. Unfortunately, I didn't get into medical school, so I thought traditional Chinese medicine was the best alternative. It offered me a chance to practice as a clinician, but in a different role and setting. During my studies, we had a biostatistics computational module. That's where I realized that programming and computational work can be quite interesting.
This new model for us, hiring our own engineers to help deploy for our largest projects, is something that we see as a really specific way to advance the acceleration of advanced AI into scale production cases.
MiniMax's M1 model stands out with its open-weight reasoning capabilities, scoring high on multiple benchmarks, including an impressive 86.0% accuracy on AIME 2024.
