All notebooks are beginner friendly! Add your dataset, click "Run All", and you'll get a 2x faster finetuned model which can be exported to GGUF, vLLM or uploaded to Hugging Face.
Mistral Small 3 ( 2501 ) sets a new benchmark in the "small" Large Language Models category below 70B, boasting 24B parameters and achieving state-of-the-art capabilities comparable to larger models! This model is an instruction-fine-tuned version of the base model: Mistral-Small-24B-Base-2501.
Mistral Small can be deployed locally and is exceptionally "knowledge-dense", fitting in a single RTX 4090 or a 32GB RAM MacBook once quantized. Perfect for:
Fast response conversational agents.
Low latency function calling.
Subject matter experts via fine-tuning.
Local inference for hobbyists and organizations handling sensitive data.
For enterprises that need specialized capabilities (increased context, particular modalities, domain specific knowledge, etc.), we will be releasing commercial models beyond what Mistral AI contributes to the community.
This release demonstrates our commitment to open source, serving as a strong base model.
We conducted side by side evaluations with an external third-party vendor, on a set of over 1k proprietary coding and generalist prompts.
Evaluators were tasked with selecting their preferred model response from anonymized generations produced by Mistral Small 3 vs another model.
We are aware that in some cases the benchmarks on human judgement starkly differ from publicly available benchmarks, but have taken extra caution in verifying a fair evaluation. We are confident that the above benchmarks are valid.
Performance accuracy on all benchmarks were obtained through the same internal evaluation pipeline - as such, numbers may vary slightly from previously reported performance
We recommend using this model with the vLLM library to implement production-ready inference pipelines. Note 1: We recommond using a relatively low temperature, such as temperature=0.15. Note 2: Make sure to add a system prompt to the model to best tailer it for your needs. If you want to use the model as a general assistant, we recommend the following system prompt:
system_prompt = """You are Mistral Small 3, a Large Language Model (LLM) created by Mistral AI, a French startup headquartered in Paris.
Your knowledge base was last updated on 2023-10-01. The current date is 2025-01-30.
When you're not sure about some information, you say that you don't have the information and don't make up anything.
If the user's question is not clear, ambiguous, or does not provide enough context for you to accurately answer the question, you do not try to answer it right away and you rather ask the user to clarify their request (e.g. \"What are some good restaurants around me?\" => \"Where are you?\" or \"When is the next flight to Tokyo\" => \"Where do you travel from?\")"""
Note: Running Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501 on GPU requires ~55 GB of GPU RAM in bf16 or fp16.
