Hao AI Lab integrates MiniMax H3 Flex into FastVideo, delivering up to 7x inference speedup
Hao AI Lab integrated Pika Labs' open-source MiniMax H3 Flex into FastVideo, achieving inference speeds up to 7 times that of the official open-source inference code. On a single GB200, generating a 5-second 480p video with audio using the same prompt and random seed took 59.7 seconds with the official code, 26.6 seconds with FastVideo BF16, 16.8 seconds with NVFP4 QAD, and 15.2 seconds with FP4 attention. The official code only supports a single GPU; after FastVideo added multi-GPU support, generating a 15-second video on 4 GPUs was 7 times faster; generating a 5-second 480p first-and-last-frame video on a single DGX Spark took 59.5 seconds. The project also releases the weights, inference code, and complete training recipe, and supports the 2K model of Open-H3-Regenerate-2K.
