MiniMax · 18 March 2026

Billed as MiniMax's first self-evolving model. Autonomous optimization over 100+ rounds is said to have yielded a 30% gain on an internal version.

MiniMax describes recursive self-improvement, in which the model updated its memory, built skills and eval sets, and modified its own scaffold. 229B parameters; SWE-Pro 56.22%, Terminal Bench 2 57.0%, MLE Bench Lite 66.6% medal rate. Weights followed in April.
