quite insane that it costs as much as 5.6 Terra [1], and twice the European counterpart (albeit dated for today's standards?) [2].

to be fair, the pelicans from Terra were quite weird all things considered. also, given the limited TPS from the first-party, it has to be pushing the limits of inference capabilities.

I don’t think a 128B model will be that competitive with a 2.8T model. If anything, one should wonder why Mistral is so expensive in the current day.
