Will OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft be Overshadowed?

OpenAI、Google和微軟會黯然失色嗎？

The recently unveiled AI model, Mistral 8x7B, appears to have piqued quite a lot of interest within the AI industry. The buzz orchestrated by the 8x7B model emerges as the model recently positioned itself as Europe’s counterpart to AI platforms, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard, among many others.

最近推出的人工智慧模式 Mistral 8x7B 似乎引起了人工智慧產業的極大興趣。 8x7B 模型引起的轟動是因為模型最近將自己定位為歐洲人工智慧平台的對應者，例如 OpenAI 的 ChatGPT 和谷歌的 Bard 等。

Amid the heightened scrutiny faced by Microsoft’s OpenAI and Google’s Bard concerning the EU’s new AI law, which is still in legislative pipelines, Mistral AI appears to have gained substantial traction. Although the new model is currently available in its beta stages, a fully functioning model is expected to launch by early 2024.

微軟的 OpenAI 和Google的 Bard 面臨歐盟新人工智慧法（該法仍在立法過程中）的嚴格審查，Mistral AI 似乎獲得了巨大的關注。儘管新車型目前處於測試階段，但功能齊全的車型預計將在 2024 年初推出。

What’s more is that with the conclusion of the aforestated funding round, accompanied by Mistral’s new AI model, the firm is now emerging as one of the top industries venturing into AI.

更重要的是，隨著上述融資輪的結束，伴隨著 Mistral 的新人工智慧模型，該公司現在已成為涉足人工智慧領域的頂級行業之一。
