- Mistral Large 4 open weights land on Hugging Face
Hugging Face published the open weights of Mistral Large 4, codename Le Chonk: a ~1T-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 49B active parameters per token (52B including embeddings and output layers), a 1M-token context, text-and-image input, and fluency in 160+ languages. The release notes say it was trained from scratch on 3,800 NVIDIA Grace Blackwell GPUs in Mistral's own European datacenters. Weights ship under a MIT-derived Mistral Ecosystem Open-Weight License with FP8 and NVFP4 variants plus GGUF builds, and transformers v5.22.0 adds day-0 support alongside vLLM, llama.cpp, and TRL. Hugging Face highlights strong cybersecurity, coding-agent, and visual-grounding results, ranking it 5th among open-weight models on the Artificial Analysis intelligence index.
- Mistral launches Large 4 preview: 1T-parameter multimodal model, weights due end of month
Mistral launched a public preview of Mistral Large 4 (ML4), unofficially nicknamed Le Chonk: a 1 trillion-parameter, natively multimodal model with 49 billion active parameters. The preview API is live on Mistral Studio, with weights dropping at the end of this month. Mistral says ML4 is competitive with the strongest open-source models globally, significantly outperforms any open-weight model developed in the US or Europe, and is state-of-the-art among open models on enterprise workloads including cybersecurity, finance and law. In some domains such as visual grounding, the company says it surpasses even frontier closed models.

- Mistral Large 4 lands in Cline, which cites its cybersecurity benchmark wins
Cline announced Mistral Large 4 is available in Cline for security-related work that wasn't possible before with GPT or Claude. The team says Mistral Large 4 beats Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra on cybersecurity benchmarks, largely because it refuses far fewer security tasks, per a post shared by the official account. The benchmark figures come from Cline's own testing and have not been independently verified.
