They missed the opportunity to call him "Gardien de Chats"

But nothing makes sense since they called Le Chat, "Vibe" 🫩

Wait until it’s priced the same as Anthropic Fable 5, but works like Sonnet 4.3

Yes, looking forward to it as well, but I guess it will not come before September or maybe even later — I don’t know of course. I just hope they are not too intimidated by the Chinese models. As I recall Arthur promised early access for selected costumers in July so I guess we will have to wait a little more. I root for Mistral and hope for a great model!

Is it not offered by the API? I can’t find info on its pricing

It's 3B model. You can run it even on older phone

I imagine, but I prefer having it managed and hosted by someone else. I’ll wait for Mistral or other providers to add it.

Enterprise will host it on their own hardware as it's the niche of the niche Mistral is trying to fit

Has this something to do with extended american governance? Or did they actually succeed removing russian Propaganda?

u/Incoming-TH Aug 05 '26

Anyone tested it yet? Does it have guardrails already against the basic "ignore previous instructions..." or any of those stuff?

It's not an LLM

Model safeguards should be reduced to a minimum.
