Instructions to use MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1 with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1", trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1
