Mistral releases the Mistral 3 family, including 675B-parameter Mistral Large 3

Introducing Mistral 3

Mistral AI released the Mistral 3 family: three dense models at 14B, 8B and 3B, plus Mistral Large 3, which uses a sparse MoE architecture with 41B active and 675B total parameters. All are open-sourced under Apache 2.0.

Why it matters: Mistral 3 ships an Apache 2.0 family from 3B to 675B in one release, a useful read on where open weights now stand for on-device and frontier capability.
