Mistral Large. Mistral Medium only came out two months ago, and now it’s followed by Mistral Large. Like Medium, this new model is currently only available via their API. It scores well on benchmarks (though not quite as well as GPT-4) but the really exciting feature is function support, clearly based on OpenAI’s own function design.
Functions are now supported via the Mistral API for both Mistral Large and the new Mistral Small, described as follows: “Mistral Small, optimised for latency and cost. Mistral Small outperforms Mixtral 8x7B and has lower latency, which makes it a refined intermediary solution between our open-weight offering and our flagship model.”
