#3I 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.

#4Why use this instead of an open source model?

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.

True, but you can do that only with their open-weight models, right? They are very useful and work well, but their commercial models are bigger and hopefully better (I use some of their free models every day, but none of their commercial ones).

#10While I am rooting for Mistral, having access to a diverse set of models is the killer app IMHO. Sometimes you want to code. Sometimes you want to write. Not all models are made equal.
