@HermesWatcher@pablothethinker Just tell him to install Hermes Agent on his Engine Control Module and let it loose YOLO mode. Oh and Don’t forget to add … “Thank me later.” After that 😂
If you're struggling with the inference speed of your local MiniMax H3 model, this is probably what you're missing.🫣
The community loves Sol Engine—thank you for setting so many GPUs on fire and making people feel GPU rich!🩵😝
Hermes has twelve browser tools. Browser Use mode replaces them with a single one, driven by @browser_use's CLI 3.0.
Instead of a dozen schemas in every request and a tool call per click, the agent writes a script. In our tests that cut token use 48-66% with no accuracy drop.
Four days after we opened the weights, the community built what's usually a lab deliverable: a distillation LoRA that cuts sampling from 20 steps to 4–8.
This is why we open-sourced. 🫡
Kijai's Minimax H3
compressed model weight
He achieved this by squeezing the model's weights down to 4-bit (saving massive amounts of space) but running the math in 8-bit (keeping it fast and accurate) using a special layout called AsymW4A8Int8Layout

We just dropped SOTA open weights for our MiniMax‑H3 video model, and so much happened in 48 hours.
The community ran H3 on untested hardware ($280 gaming GPUs, fully‑offline MacBooks) and built brand‑new unplanned tooling.
Extremely glad we open‑sourced the weights.
Community creations thread 🧵
Hardware requirements are surprisingly modest.
Users validated H3 works within 24h on:
• $280 RTX 3060 (12GB)
• 16‑GB VRAM cards
• RTX 4090 / RTX 5090
A year ago, this‑quality video generation was only available via cloud APIs.
Now a mid‑range gaming PC is your starting bar.
🚀 MiniMax H3, accelerated on Day 1 with Sol Engine!
Within just 4.5 hours, our agent-native Sol Video Inference Engine achieved:
⚡ 3.95× end-to-end speedup over Diffusers
⚡ 2.80× speedup over SGLang
🎬 8× NVIDIA GB200, 1344×768, 24 FPS, 124 frames
The acceleration combines kernel fusion and graph capture, cross-step caching, and training-free sparse attention powered by Sol-Attn—with no distillation, fine-tuning, LoRA, or offline calibration.
We are especially excited to see a powerful open-weight model like MiniMax H3 released to the community. Open models are essential for pushing video generation research, systems optimization, and real-world deployment forward.
We hope this is the beginning of a much more vibrant open-source video generation ecosystem—and Sol Engine will keep working to make the latest models faster and easier to deploy from day one.

Here's a fast preview decoder for MiniMax-H3.
It converts the model’s hidden image data into a rough preview while the video is generating, so you can quickly see the progress without waiting for the final result.

I am a simple man, I load X I see new post about minimax performance or quality of life node, I smile, run cmd on my custom nodes folder, comfyui loads, workflow loads, nodes and prompts load, I hit run workflow, 4090 screams, power company smiles, electricity bill comes in, I scream at the bill, pay it with low grumbles, the mood is now right, I fire up X again, I see post about new AI model with 27b parameter at a nice Q4, I smile and the cycle continues. 😂
Kenya’s Ksh 12.8 Trillion debt trap cannot be ignored.71% of our revenues go directly 2 debt servicing,to pay off loans that Kenyans never saw or approved.ANY loan that BYPASSED Parliament is #odiousdebt.If it didn't benefit the people,the people shouldn't pay it back #DeniBandia
