Too little too late, I work in a large European investment bank and we're already using Anthropic's Claude via Gitlab Duo.

Is there are replacement for the Safe Harbor replacement?

Otherwise it could be illegal to transfer EU data to US companies

Interesting. Europe is really putting up a fight for once. I'm into it.

Expected this comment.

Mistral has been consistently last place, or at least last place among ChatGPT, Claude, Llama, and Gemini/Gemma.

Need the best? ChatGPT

Need local stuff? Llama(maybe Gemma)

Need to do barely legal things that break most company's TOS? Mistral... although deepseek probably beats it in 2025.

For people outside Europe, we don't have patriotism for our LLMs, we just use the best. Mistral has barely any usecase.

I think this is a game changer, because data privacy is a legitimate concern for many enterprise users. Btw, you can also run Mistral locally within the Docker model runner on a Mac.

> I think this is a game changer, because data privacy is a legitimate concern for many enterprise users. Indeed. At work, we are experimenting with this. Using a cloud platform is a non-starter for data confidentiality reasons. On-premise is the way to go. Also, they’re not American, which helps. > Btw, you can also run Mistral locally within the Docker model runner on a Mac. True, but you can do that only with thei…

I also kind of don't understand how it seems everyone is using AI for coding. I haven't had a client yet which would have approved any external AI usage. So I basically use them as search engines on steroids, but code can't go directly in or out.
