Three minutes of stand-up. Puns are banned.
MiniMax M2.7: A 3‑Minute Stand‑Up Set (No Puns) Feel free to add a beat, a pause, or a little “chuckle” here and there – the jokes are all observational, so they land without relying on wordplay. “Alright folks, how’s everybody doing tonight? Great. I need you awake for what’s next.

MiniMax M2.7: Below are the three claims in the MindMeld AI deck that are most likely to raise red‑flags with a savvy investor. For each one I’ll spell out exactly why the statement is weak and then give a concrete, actionable fix you can use to back it up or re‑frame it.
