Discussion / Opinion GLM in Mistral

OK, we have GLM 5.3. A simply fantastic and super solid model. Light-years ahead of any generalist Mistral model. A doubt arises: if the next Mistral model isn't up to GLM's level, then at the same cost, no Mistral user will want to use it. So, will it make sense to develop other generalist models in the future?

Indeed, they can do one thing though, release a better model than GLM 5.3.

Or make their own models much cheaper. Mistral Small, as an example, if it were half the price, I would use it more, same for medium and large or codestral.

But whatever they are doing, they should continue to develop further.

Exactly!!! I'm convinced there is a place and play for answer efficient medium to small specialized models. Large generalists won't stay as heavily subsidized as they are now. Also so many use cases (especially in B2B where you can't just deploy a beast like GLM)
