    News is out about Microsoft's large investment in Mistral. Honestly, it's quite poignant – Mistral has always positioned itself as Europe's independent AI, and its open-source models are doing well. This is a similar script to Microsoft's investment in OpenAI a few years ago: first cooperation, then heavy investment, and finally acquisition. Europe's last potentially independent AI company is now hitched to Microsoft's chariot. # AI # Mistral # Microsoft # Open

    微软大额投资 Mistral 的消息出来了。说实话挺唏嘘——Mistral 一直以欧洲独立 AI 自居,开源模型做得也不错。这跟几年前微软投 OpenAI 差不多的剧本:先合作、再重投、最后收购。欧洲最后一家有潜力的独立 AI 公司也绑上微软的战车了。 # AI # Mistral # Microsoft # OpenSource
