Seeking an alternative to Microsoft Copilot? Mistral has just launched Mistral Small 3, and its instruction-tuned model performs exceptionally well, competing with open-weight models up to three times its size and even with the proprietary GPT4o-mini model. This is evident across benchmarks for Code, Math, General Knowledge, and Instruction Following.
One thrilling prospect is the potential to integrate the 24B model (mistral-small-24b-instruct-2501) with Microsoft Word locally, thereby eliminating any monthly fees. To see this in action, you can watch this brief demo video.
