Microsoft is partnering with French AI startup Mistral to bring more AI models to its Azure platform. It’s the second major AI investment for Microsoft.
Microsoft has announced a new multiyear partnership with Mistral, a French AI startup that’s valued at €2 billion . The Financial Times reports that the partnership will include Microsoft taking a minor stake in the 10-month-old AI company, just a little over a year after Microsoft invested more than $10 billion into its OpenAI partnership.
'Mistral also has a new AI chatbot' Mistral Large is available on Mistral’s own infrastructure, hosted in Europe, or through Azure AI Studio and Azure Machine Learning. Mistral Small will also be available today, offering improved latency over Mistral’s 8x7B model. Mistral is also releasing a new conversational chatbot, Le Chat, that’s based on various models from Mistral AI.
