A developer outlines a rapid, three-phase protocol for evaluating new open-weight language models, such as Minimax M3, within an hour. The process prioritizes verifying the model's performance on real-world, unglamorous tasks over polished demos or benchmark scores. It involves bringing personal coding tasks, interrogating the model's weakest responses, and testing its ability to handle complex, multi-file contexts, all while considering the cost and reproducibility of the evaluation.
