Mistral is a family of open-weight language models developed by Mistral AI. It includes models like Mistral 7B, a dense transformer model, and Mixtral 8x7B, a mixture of experts (MoE) model that activates only 2 of 8 expert layers at a time for efficient performance.

Mixtral (Mixtral 8x7B) is an improved version of Mistral that uses a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture, meaning it selects only 2 out of 8 experts per forward pass, providing better efficiency and performance compared to traditional dense models.
