# MiniMax-M2

## Overview

MiniMax-M2 is a compact, fast, and cost-effective MoE model (230 billion total parameters with 10 billion active parameters) built for elite performance in coding and agentic tasks, all while maintaining powerful general intelligence. With just 10 billion activated parameters, MiniMax-M2 provides the sophisticated, end-to-end tool use performance expected from today's leading models, but in a streamlined form factor that makes deployment and scaling easier than ever.

For more details refer to the [release blog post](https://www.minimax.io/news/minimax-m2).

## Usage examples

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer


model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2",
    device_map="auto",
    revision="refs/pr/52",
)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2", revision="refs/pr/52")

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is your favourite condiment?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Well, I'm quite partial to a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It adds just the right amount of zesty flavour to whatever I'm cooking up in the kitchen!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Do you have mayonnaise recipes?"}
]

model_inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt", add_generation_prompt=True).to(model.device)

generated_ids = model.generate(**model_inputs, max_new_tokens=100)

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids)[0]

print(response)
```
