This model is a MXFP4 mixed model of [MiniMax-M3](https://huggingface.co/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M3) generated by [intel/auto-round](https://github.com/intel/auto-round) with llm_compressor format. Please follow the license of the original model.
- MOE (block_sparse_moe.experts): MXFP4
- MOE (block_sparse_moe.shared_experts): MXFP8
- self_attn (q/k/v/o): MXFP8

## Ethical Considerations and Limitations

The model can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. Because of the limitations of the pretrained model and the finetuning datasets, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.

Therefore, before deploying any applications of the model, developers should perform safety testing.

## Caveats and Recommendations

Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model.
