AWS and Mistral AI expand collaboration

AWS and Mistral AI announced a deeper collaboration in generative AI. Customers can now access Mistral AI's Mistral Large, the European AI startup's flagship LLM, through Amazon Bedrock. Mistral AI will also use AWS hardware, such as AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia, to train and deploy future foundation models on Amazon Bedrock, which is now available in the AWS Europe region (Paris). Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are currently competing for leadership in cloud AI. A European AI model from a European startup on servers in Europe is an interesting proposition for, you guessed it, European companies. But with Mistral already working with Microsoft and Amazon, Jeff's former online bookstore has just leveled the playing field.
