❗️Mistral drops a 1T-parameter “Le Chonk”

Mistral AI has unveiled Mistral Large 4, internally nicknamed “Le Chonk”, a 1 trillion-parameter natively multimodal model with just 49B parameters active at a time.

Mistral says it is currently the best open-weights model from the US or Europe across aggregated benchmarks, while reaching state-of-the-art performance in areas including cybersecurity, manufacturing and finance. It also reportedly surpasses closed frontier models on visual grounding.

The model was developed end-to-end in Europe and runs on Mistral’s own European cloud infrastructure. API access is available today, while the open-weights release is planned for the end of October.

Mistral is also working privately with cybersecurity partners on the model.
