Mistral AI listed the following six key improvements for 'Le Chat.'
1: Cited Web Search
Le Chat is mostly used by students and professionals for learning, research, and work, so to make it easier to use in these cases, the training knowledge has been enhanced with internet search. Below is an example of how Mistral AI's marketing team is using AI to evaluate the healthcare market.
2: Canvas for ideas, inline editing, and exporting
The Canvas is an area displayed separately from the interactive display, allowing you to share output with Mistral LLM, supporting the creative process of creating something from scratch and realizing ideas. Because the Canvas is not bound by two-way dialogue, you can directly edit and transform content using the powerful inference capabilities of LLM. Below, Mistral AI's product team is creating a mockup of a product metrics dashboard in React in preparation for the launch of Canvas.

3: Understanding documents and images using the new multimodal AI 'Pixtral Large'
With the power of 'Pixtral Large,' you can now read PDF files attached to the input area and process documents and images. In the example below, we load the 1935 paper that inspired the ' Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox ' and perform information extraction and summarization.
