Does Mistral come close to Opus 4.6 with any of their models?
- DarkNova6 7mo agoNot at the moment, but a release of Mistral 4 seems close which likely bridges the gap.
- re-thc 7mo agoMistral Small 4 is already announced.
- androiddrew 7mo agoMOE but 120B range. Man I wish it was an 80B. I have 2 GPUs with 62Gib of usable VRAM. A 4bit 80B gives me some context window, but 120B puts me into system RAM
- Aerroon 7mo agoEither some q3 or since it's a MoE, maybe a REAP version of q4 might work (or could be terrible, I'm not sure about REAP'd models).
- tjwebbnorfolk 7mo agoMistral hasn't been in the running for SOTA for quite awhile now
- chucky_z 7mo agoI use mistral-medium-3.1 for a lot of random daily tasks, along with the vibe cli. I'd state from my personal opinion that mistral is my preferred 'model vendor' by far at this point. They're extremely consistent between releases while each of them just feels better. I also have a strong personal preference to the output. I actively use gemini-3.1-pro-preview, claude-4.6-opus-high, and gpt-5.3-codex as well. I prefer them all for different reasons, however I usually _start_ with mistral if it's an option.
