Under Arthur Mensch's leadership, Mistral AI has achieved significant results, including the launch of an 8x7B model based on the MOE architecture, which outperforms the LLAMA270B with 6x faster inference speeds in most benchmarks.
Mistral AI's models are divided into three categories: Mistral Tiny, Mistral Small, and Mistral Medium. Mistral7b Instruct v02 and mixtral 8x7b belong to Mistral Tiny and Mistral Small, respectively. Hopefully, the Mistral Medium model has not yet been released, but the company says it is in development and will be at the top of the standard benchmarks.
In response to the commercial sustainability issues faced by open-source large language model companies, Mistral AI recently launched "La Plateforme" to provide API endpoints for its available models. In addition, Mistral AI is working on the development of a multilingual Mistral Medium model that excels in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and **, achieving an MT-Bench score of 86 points, even more than GPT35。
At the same time, there is talk about OpenAI possibly releasing GPT-4 at the end of the yearRumors of 5 are also spreading in the industry. This makes 2024 full of anticipation and competition for the field of open-source large language models. Against this backdrop, the focus of the industry is whether Mistral AI can stand out from the competition and achieve commercial success.
After the news of Mistral AI's announcement of the open-source GPT-4 level model came out, there was a heated discussion on social **. One user expressed concern about the future profitability of Mistral AI, especially after the release of the 7B model they called "Mistral Tiny".

The latest round was led by Andreessen Horowitz (A16Z), with Lightspeed Venture Partners joining in the refill. The financing will enable Mistral AI to further expand its R&D scale and improve model performance to cope with increasingly competitive markets.
In the field of open-source large language models, the release of GPT-4 models will undoubtedly set off a new round of competition. It will take time to see if Mistral AI can stand firm in the competition and achieve commercial success. However, in any case, Mistral AI's open-source strategy has attracted a lot of attention, bringing more opportunities for innovation and breakthroughs in the industry.
In conclusion, Mistral AI has become a powerful force in the field of open-source large language models with its leading technology and open-source strategy.
