Part 7/13:
ML2's smaller size compared to models like GPT-4 or Meta's larger models means faster response times due to less memory pressure, and cost-effective deployment. Mistral AI emphasizes the model's ability to avoid "hallucinations" (incorrect or fabricated outputs) by fine-tuning it for cautious and reliable responses. The model is designed to recognize its limits and is optimized for concise, business-friendly replies.
While open access to ML2 is available via repositories like Hugging Face, there are restrictive licensing terms for commercial use, necessitating separate licensing agreements—an understandable move given the substantial resources involved in creating such sophisticated models.
