Mistral AI and Google Cloud Partner to Expand Access to Generative AI

Mistral AI has joined forces with Google Cloud to enhance the accessibility of generative AI. The France-based startup will leverage Google Cloud’s AI-optimized infrastructure to distribute its language models, and it also plans to test and scale up its large language models (LLMs) using Google Cloud’s infrastructure. LLMs are trained on vast amounts of data to generate texts and other forms of content. The integration of Mistral AI’s 7B open LLM into Google’s Vertex AI Model Garden allows businesses to utilize Mistral AI’s and other open-source models to improve and launch AI products and services. Additionally, Mistral AI’s new mixture-of-expert model will be made available on the Google Cloud Marketplace. The partnership comes shortly after Mistral AI secured €385m ($415m) in investment. By collaborating with Google Cloud, Mistral AI aims to build larger, more sophisticated open-source AI models and make them easily accessible to organizations worldwide.
