Mistral releases the open weights of Mistral Large 4 "Le Chonk": a 1T-total, ~52B-active multimodal MoE that Mistral says leads open models on FrontierCode 2.0

On Oct 29 Mistral released an improved Mistral Large 4 (Le Chonk) with open weights on Hugging Face (plus an NVFP4 quantized checkpoint), served on its API as mistral-large-4. After about three more weeks of reinforcement learning since the early-October preview, Mistral reports 19.7% on FrontierCode 2.0, Terminal-Bench 4.0 up from 28% to 41%, and new low/medium/high reasoning modes. The license is a modified MIT that allows commercial use, but running a model-as-a-service business needs a separate commercial license.
