Mistral AI has released Shieldstral, a 3 billion parameter guard model designed to classify content policy violations. Unlike previous models like LlamaGuard and ShieldGemma, Shieldstral's policy is embedded within the prompt rather than its weights, allowing for dynamic adjustments without retraining. This approach enables Shieldstral to function as a binary classifier, outputting a score between 0 and 1 based on logits for "yes" or "no" tokens, which offers more flexibility in setting moderation thresholds compared to fixed labels.
