MiniMax has released M3.1 Flash, and plans open weights on October 23

MiniMax has released M3.1 Flash, a reasoning model that handles up to one million tokens of context and accepts both text and images. API pricing sits at $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.60 per million output tokens. MiniMax plans to release the model as open weights on October 23.
