Amazon Bedrock, a platform for developing generative AI applications, has introduced the Mistral Large language model (LLM).
The company noted that the chatbot is “ideally suited” for tackling complex and specialized tasks such as text or code generation.
Three Mistral models, including Mistral 7B and Mixtral 8x7B, are now available to customers in France, as well as in Northern Virginia and Oregon (USA).
“Our mission is to make cutting-edge AI ubiquitous, and to achieve this, we want to collaborate with the world’s leading cloud provider,” said Arthur Mensch, CEO of the French startup.
Amazon has disclosed more detailed information about the Mistral Large model:
- The chatbot is fluent in English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian, with a “nuanced understanding of grammar and cultural nuances”;
- A context window of 32,000 tokens allows for precise retention of information from large documents;
- There is an option to customize moderation policies.
The AI model performs highly in standard benchmarks and ranks second globally among publicly available LLMs.
As part of the partnership, Mistral AI will utilize Amazon’s Trainium and Inferentia AI chips for future foundational models it develops and deploys on Bedrock.
Earlier, Microsoft announced a long-term collaboration with the French company.
Back in March, Amazon announced a $2.75 billion investment in AI startup Anthropic, which began using the corporation’s chips and became available on the Bedrock platform.
