- R · What Makes It Special
- Mistral AI's Mistral 7B (September 27, 2023), which Mistral called the most powerful language model for its size to date: a 7.3B-parameter model that outperformed Llama 2 13B on all benchmarks and Llama 1 34B on many, approached CodeLlama 7B on code while staying good at English, and used grouped-query attention and sliding-window attention for faster, cheaper inference; released under Apache 2.0 with a chat fine-tune that beat Llama 2 13B chat. Retired from Mistral's API March 30, 2025.
