AI BriefingPushing Open AI Models to Frontier Level
Key point
Mistral AI has declared an open model revolution with the release of Mistral 7B, which surpasses the performance limits of existing open models.
Details
The future of generative AI will be led not by closed, proprietary models but by community-driven open models. Open models, backed by technical excellence and the power of the community, represent the surest path to countering AI monopoly structures and solving censorship and bias issues.
Open models give companies and developers powerful control. By directly leveraging model weights (weights), they can go beyond the limits of black-box models to optimize for specific tasks, and precisely adjust model size, cost, and latency (latency). They can also protect data privacy and minimize the risk of IP leakage by deploying on a company's own infrastructure.
As its first achievement, the released Mistral 7B is a model with 7 billion parameters that has proven performance surpassing all existing open models of 13B or smaller on English and code benchmarks. This is a significant milestone showing how the performance of small models has rapidly evolved from Gopher (280B) through Llama 2 (34B) to Mistral 7B.
