"We believe improving the accuracy of [Le Chat's] responses is a key step in the deployment of our technology, particularly for businesses," Mistral co-founder and CEO Arthur Mensch said in a statement. "Through this partnership, we are providing our clients with a unique multicultural and multilingual alternative."
This is the first deal of this kind for the Paris-based artificial intelligence company. And it indicates that Mistral doesn't want to be considered as "just" a foundation model maker.
Le Chat will be able to tap into AFP's daily production of stories. And given that AFP is one of the biggest news agencies in the world, it represents a significant volume of text - around 2,300 stories per day in six languages.
As a reminder, Mistral focuses on large language models and doesn't offer image-generation models, making this partnership even more significant as it expands their capabilities.
