Koi Courtyard pond, MiniMax vs DeepSeekThe post doesn’t quote the prompt wording.

Author’s verdict
The author calls the MiniMax pond a massive leap over older MiniMax models in 3D and says it ran faster than DeepSeek; no outright winner named.

@SahilPanhotra’s view (paraphrased)

MiniMax M3.1 Flash (top, in MiniMax Code) gets the same Koi Courtyard test the author gave DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 (bottom) earlier: a see-through pond with rocks, swimming koi and a bamboo fountain.
