Mistral Large 4 发布:“Le chonk”

英文标题:Introducing Mistral Large 4: Le chonk

Mistral 发布了 Mistral Large 4 预览版,这是一款总参数量 1 万亿、激活参数量 490 亿的模型,使用其自建的 3,800 张 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell GPU 集群训练。该模型现可通过 API 使用,Mistral 承诺将在“本月底”发布开放权重版本。模型目前仅提供“none”和“high”两个推理级别;在 Artificial Analysis 上获得 38 分,较去年 12 月的 Mistral Large 3(9 分)有显著提升。尽管仍未达到前沿 Fable 级模型水平,但这表明 Mistral 的模型能力已回到距离行业前沿约 6 个月的位置。

Mistral Large 4 发布:“Le chonk”([来源](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49977979 "Hacker News"))Mistral 重回赛场。该公司今天发布 Mistral Large 4 的预览版:这是一款总参数量 1 万亿、激活参数量 490 亿的模型,训练使用了其自建集群中的 3,800 张 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell GPU。

预览版现可通过其 API 使用。Mistral 承诺将在“本月底”发布开放权重模型。

该模型目前仅通过 Mistral API 支持两个推理级别:“none”和“high”。这里是两只鹈鹕——“high”版本看起来更好;不过令人意外的是,它只使用了 2,717 个输出 token,而“none”版本使用了 3,275 个:

效果不错。育儿袋很出色,自行车车架尺寸正确,脚踩在踏板上。两只踏板似乎都位于车架前方。渐变效果很好。

在 Artificial Analysis 上,它获得了 38 分,仅落后于 5,520 亿参数的 DeepSeek 4.1 Flash。与去年 12 月的 Mistral Large 3 相比,这是一次巨大提升;后者画出了这只糟糕的鹈鹕,并且在 AA 上仅获得 9 分。

它当然还不是 Fable 级模型,但很高兴看到 Mistral 推出了一款重新回到距离前沿大约 6 个月水平的模型。

Introducing Mistral Large 4: Le chonk (via) Mistral are back in the game. Today they're releasing a preview of Mistral Large 4, a 1 trillion parameter, 49 billion active parameter model trained on their own cluster of 3,800 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell GPUs.

The preview is available via their API. They promise to release the open weights model at the "end of this month".

The model only supports two reasoning levels - "none" and "high" - via the Mistral API. Here are both pelicans - the "high" one looks better, though surprisingly it only used 2,717 output tokens compared to "none" which used 3,275:

It's good. The pouch is great, the bicycle frame is the right size, it has feet on pedals. Both pedals appear in front of the frame though. Nice gradients.

On Artificial Analysis it scores 38, just behind DeepSeek 4.1 Flash, which is a 552B model. It's a huge improvement on last December's Mistral Large 3, which drew this terrible pelican and scored 9 on AA.

It's certainly not a Fable-class model, but it's great to see Mistral put out a model that's back to being maybe about 6 months behind the frontier.
