About
Mistral AI has introduced two advanced models for on-device computing and edge applications, named "les Ministraux": Ministral 3B and Ministral 8B. These models excel in knowledge, commonsense reasoning, function-calling, and efficiency within the sub-10B parameter range. They support up to 128k context length and are designed for various applications, including on-device translation, offline smart assistants, local analytics, and autonomous robotics. Ministral 8B features an interleaved sliding-window attention pattern for faster and more memory-efficient inference. Both models can function as intermediaries in multi-step agentic workflows, handling tasks like input parsing, task routing, and API calls based on user intent with low latency and cost. Benchmark evaluations indicate that les Ministraux consistently outperforms comparable models across multiple tasks. As of October 16, 2024, both models are available, with Ministral 8B priced at $0.1 per million tokens.

About
Mu is a 330-million-parameter encoder–decoder language model designed to power the agent in Windows settings by mapping natural-language queries to Settings function calls, running fully on-device via NPUs at over 100 tokens per second while maintaining high accuracy. Drawing on Phi Silica optimizations, Mu’s encoder–decoder architecture reuses a fixed-length latent representation to cut computation and memory overhead, yielding 47 percent lower first-token latency and 4.7× higher decoding speed on Qualcomm Hexagon NPUs compared to similar decoder-only models. Hardware-aware tuning, including a 2/3–1/3 encoder–decoder parameter split, weight sharing between input and output embeddings, Dual LayerNorm, rotary positional embeddings, and grouped-query attention, enables fast inference at over 200 tokens per second on devices like Surface Laptop 7 and sub-500 ms response times for settings queries.
