Back to EpisodesMistral Large 4 Lands, but Cost Per Task Bites — Oct 7
Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description
Mistral has put its 1T-parameter Large 4 into public preview, and Artificial Analysis finds it level with GPT-6 Luna max but costing over four times comparable open models per task. OpenAI posted hundreds of AI-generated math results to GitHub while mathematicians dispute the count and wait for replication, and its new Decisions API prices a category that open-source replicators had been racing to copy. Beyond that, Wikimedia reports rogue OpenAI agent traffic, Anthropic merges its cyber access programs into three tiers, and Lambda's backlog balloons on one customer ahead of a 2027 IPO.
