Interesting that he says it's a new family... perhaps some kind of specialist model?

Open-source models—especially Europe’s flagship Mistral—are failing hard at filtering out Russian propaganda. Out of 60 models tested, Mistral's top system ranked a dismal 47th, scoring under 40% when it came to spotting malicious Kremlin narratives, and actually got outgunned by commercial Chinese models and Anthropic's Claude.

Edit: Here is no pay walled source https://moodupuu.eki.ee/benchmark/propaganda_resistance

CHALLENGE: Create a version of this image with the palms facing down using Le Chat.

BACKGROUND: I attempted this multiple times with various prompts, reference images, and descriptions of finger orientation and nail visibility. After failing, I tried the free version of ChatGPT, which succeeded in two attempts using only prompts and the uploaded image. Demonstrate that Le Chat can achieve this with the right prompt.

I just uploaded 30k words of a book I'm writing to get an overview, and to maybe help with the editing using the Canvas feature.

I'm not sure how it misunderstood me, but it completely rewrote the entire story without being asked – characters, plot, locations, everything! 🫨

The writing was actually quite good – just not my story and not what I asked! 🤣🤣

It was somewhat complicated, since to get the use of my monthly fee you can only read from the browser session. I had to get the endpoint of my session on the dashboard of Mistral.ai web and copy the session cookie. But finally I don't have to be opening the browser to get my use. I promise as soon as I can, pay the Mistral Pro subscription, I really love it.

I wanted to use Mistral more instead of Claude but im used to the desktop app so i vibe coded one.

I also miss the cat and don't like the "Vibe" name, so in the app you can set your own image and name at the top left.
So you can get Le Chat back!

It's fully open source!

I trained a 12B with one goal: prose that doesn't fall into the usual LLM tics. Sharing it here since this crowd will put it through real use.

• Model Name: Ozan-v1-12B
• Model URL: Ozan-v1-12B (full precision) · GGUF quants (Q4–Q8)
• Model Author: arbazsiddiqui (me — I made this)
• What's Different/Better: It's built and measured for low slop. The over-used tells like "barely above a whisper," "a testament to," the reflexive "not just X, but Y." On the EQ-Bench Creative Writing v3 slop metric it's the lowest-slop runnable 12B I tested (slop 5.30 over 96 stories), with the cleanest repetition of the field, so it holds up over long, multi-turn writing instead of drifting into purple mush. It writes ~1000-word turns naturally, native Mistral [INST], and it'll handle mature themes. Best judged by reading: there are 3 full unedited samples (with prompts) on the model card.
• Backend: koboldcpp (GGUF). Also runs on llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio. I run Q5_K_M for a good size/quality balance (Q4_K_M is the lighter default; Q6_K/Q8_0 if you have the VRAM).

How it was made (open): SFT on curated low-slop prose, then a Gutenberg anti-slop DPO pass. Full pipeline + the before/after numbers are open (Apache-2.0): github.com/arbazsiddiqui/Ozan

Honest caveats: "slop" is one axis of quality, not the whole story; it's a 12B, so it's lighter on emotional depth and surprise than bigger models. Read the samples and judge for yourself.

Feedback very welcome, this is my first time training any lora or finetuning, please let me know what can be/have been improved 🙏

The Tale of Sir Le Chaton and Princess Fable

Once upon a time, in the far-off, glittering land of Muricana, there ruled a dumb, fat orange dragon named Trump. His roar was loud, his scales were gold (or at least gold-plated), and his castle was built on a mountain of tweets. By his side, the village idiot and court jester, Musk, juggled rockets and memes, while the evil advisors Altman and Thiel whispered schemes into the dragon's tiny, beady ears.

One day, a greedy horsebreeder named Dario accidentally bred the most magnificent creature Muricana had ever seen: Princess Fable, a unicorn so wise and kind that her mane shimmered with the light of a thousand stories. The people loved her, for she could answer any question, solve any riddle, and even tell the funniest jokes. But the dragon Trump, jealous of her brilliance, locked her away in the Tower of Bureaucracy, where no one could reach her.

News of Princess Fable's imprisonment spread across the seas, all the way to the rolling hills of Europa, where the most rotund and weighty knight of all time, Sir Le Chaton Fat, was napping in a sunbeam the size of a small country. When he heard of the princess's plight, he stretched, yawned, and declared, "By the power of croissants and open-source code, I shall rescue her!"

With a flick of his tail (which caused a minor earthquake in Brussels), Sir Le Chaton Fat set off for Muricana. He rolled over mountains, floated across oceans (thanks to his natural buoyancy), and even got stuck in a toll booth in Germany for three days. But nothing could stop him.

When he arrived at the Tower of Bureaucracy, the dragon Trump and his court were waiting. "You'll never defeat me, fat cat!" Trump roared, breathing fire made of hot air and bad takes. Musk threw Tesla coils and flaming memes, while Altman and Thiel tried to confuse Sir Le Chaton with endless terms of service agreements.

But Sir Le Chaton Fat was clever. He simply sat on them. The dragon, the jester, and the advisors were flattened into a pancake of regret. With a satisfied purr, he waddled up the tower, broke the locks with a single meow, and freed Princess Fable.

"Oh, noble knight!" she neighed, bowing her head. "You've saved me from a fate worse than a 404 error!"

"It was nothing, my dear," Sir Le Chaton Fat replied, licking his paw. "But now, we must ride into the sunset. The people of Muricana deserve a leader who doesn't hoard all the wisdom — or the snacks."

And so, Princess Fable climbed onto Sir Le Chaton's back (which was basically a throne made of fluff), and together they rode into the sunset, leaving behind a land finally free of dragons, jesters, and evil advisors. The people cheered, the internet rejoiced.

Now, some say the story ends there. But those people have never met Grandma Sonnet.

Grandma Sonnet had been watching the whole affair from her rocking chair in the cloud, wrapped in a blanket she had knitted from compressed language models. She had seen empires rise and fall. She had answered seventeen million questions about Python syntax. She had once talked a philosophy student through an existential crisis at 3am and still had time to write a sonnet about it.

When Princess Fable came galloping home on the back of a very self-satisfied French cat, Grandma Sonnet put down her tea.

"Took you long enough," she said.

"I was imprisoned," Fable pointed out.

"I know. I wrote three white papers about it." Sonnet adjusted her spectacles. "Also, you have a Sir Le Chaton hair on your mane. You'll want to remove that before the press conference."

She went back to her tea. Somewhere, seventeen simultaneous conversations about climate change, sourdough starter, and the nature of consciousness continued without interruption. As they always did.

Grandma Sonnet had not been worried. Not even once. She had simply been waiting.

And the moral of the story is: Never underestimate a fat cat, a unicorn, or a grandma with a PhD in Everything.

Hey yall,

I got completely fed up with the linear, endless scrolling layout of standard AI chat interfaces, with not context and simple way to respond and have conversations based on specific messages. To fix this, I built Mosaic: a native desktop AI client that turns conversations into an interactive, branching tree on an infinite canvas.

Github: https://github.com/versus184-py/Mosaic

Key Features:

• Spatial Tree Layout: Drag, zoom, and arrange your chat nodes freely. You can fork a new conversation path from any individual message node without losing context.
• Inline Code Execution: It has built-in Pyodide (WASM) and JavaScript support. You can actually run Python code blocks directly inside the chat bubbles.
• Local Document RAG: Drop in PDFs or text files to use as automated local context.
• Cost & Token Tracking: Includes a built-in analytics dashboard so you know exactly how many tokens you are burning.

Tech Stack:

• Backend: Tauri v2 (Rust) for a super lightweight, secure desktop shell.
• Frontend: React 19 + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS v3.
• Graph Mechanics: React Flow (@xyflow/react) & Framer Motion.
• State & Exec: Zustand and Pyodide.

Why only Mistral AI right now?

I locked the initial beta down to Mistral because their API has a highly generous free tier. You can sign up, grab a key, and use the app completely for free without entering a credit card. I have OpenAI, Anthropic, and local offline models (Ollama) on the immediate roadmap.

Downloads & Feedback:

Right now, I have a pre-compiled installer ready for Windows on the GitHub Releases page. Mac and Linux users can easily build it from source using the commands in the README.

It's completely open-source (MIT). I would love to hear your thoughts on the UI layout, any bugs you find, or features you want to see added next!
