Mistral AI has launched a new suite of language models, including Mistral Large 3, aimed at providing high-end AI capabilities to a broader audience, regardless of location, internet reliability, or language. These models are designed for diverse applications, from general-purpose tasks to on-device use in laptops, smartphones, and robots. The company's approach includes both open-source and proprietary AI models, with a focus on multilingual capabilities.
Mistral's new models include 'premier' models, accessible through an API and fine-tuned for optimal performance, and open-source models that can be downloaded and customised. Key models include Mistral Large 3, a multimodal model, and Codestral, a coding-focused model fluent in over 80 programming languages. The company also offers models like Magistral Small and Medium, designed for chain-of-thought tasks.
Mistral AI's strategy balances high performance with customisation and control, appealing to businesses requiring top-tier results and those prioritising data privacy. The open-source models offer customisation and control, allowing businesses to tailor tools to their specific needs and maintain data within their own infrastructure.
