Pricing doesn't seem to be a topic of interest on Mistral's public pages. I feel I'm missing the point somehow, because "what does it cost" was my first question.

Fantastic news, thank you.

How is this a problem? So many companies have been founded around premium versions of open-source products. It's good that they've even given us as much as they have. They have to make the economics work somehow.
It's not a problem from a moral perspective or anything - we all know these models are very expensive to create. However, from a marketing perspective - think of who the users of an open model are. They're people who, for one reason or another, don't want to use OpenAI's APIs. When selling a hosted API to a group predominantly comprised of people who reject hosted APIs - you've got to expect some push back.
From my perspective, I want to use the best model. But maybe as models improve and for certain use cases that will start to change. If I work on a project that has certain parts that are fulfilled by Mistral and can reduce cost, that's cool.
I'm surprised how expensive this model is compared to GPT-4. Only ~20% cheaper
I've been staying tuned[0] since the miqu[1] debacle thinking that more open weights were on the horizon. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Interesting, I didn’t know they had le chat. I’ve been wanting a chatgpt competitor with mistral. Also love the fact they put “le” in front of their products
Cute, but "le chat" literally means "the cat". I presume most young Francophones who are likely to actually use Mistral will pronounce it in Franglais as "le tchatte".
There is not a lot of advantage to releasing this on Azure where you are directly competing with GPT-4, which will beat you on most tasks.
