| Field | ||
|---|---|---|
| Summary | ||
| Verdict | Blocked Per the Tencent Hy Community License Agreement (Sections 1(l) and 5(c)), the licence's defined Territory excludes the European Union, the United Kingdom and South Korea, and licensees are expressly prohibited from using, distributing or displaying the model or its outputs outside that Territory. Under those terms the weights are not deployable for EU users or workloads, regardless of architecture quality. | Blocked Per current documentation, the MiniMax Non-Commercial License prohibits commercial deployment without individually negotiated written authorization from MiniMax, making the weights unsuitable for EU commercial workloads out-of-the-box. Opaque training data and Shanghai-based publisher compound the EU AI Act and data-transfer gaps. |
