Derived models are now labeled in the Artificial Analysis video model rankings, and you can hide them. Our rankings include a growing number of video models fine-tuned from another model. Two of the five models at the top of AA-Video-T2V v2.0, Utopai X and MiniMax H3 Max, are built on MiniMax H3. Derived models remain in the rankings by default because they differ from their base models. For specific capabilities and use cases, they can be significantly better or worse than the base model, and price, speed and availability often differ. These differences matter to anyone choosing a model. ā¤ The base modelās logo now appears next to the name of each derived model. ā¤ Select āHide derived modelsā to show only base models in the rankings.
