AI初创公司Mistral周四向公众发布了其Large 4模型，称该模型旨在帮助机构识别并修复网络安全漏洞。
AI startup Mistral released its Large 4 model to the public on Thursday, saying it was designed to help organisations identify and fix cyber-security vulnerabilities.
与谷歌（GOOGL.O）Gemini等主要通过在线服务访问的领先AI系统不同，该模型可供任何人下载并独立运行。
Unlike leading AI systems such as Google's (GOOGL.O) Gemini, which are mainly accessed through online services, the model can be downloaded and run independently by anyone.
Mistral表示，此次发布的版本是对三周前推出的版本的升级，此前该模型与政府和企业用户进行了测试，这些测试帮助提升了其性能。
Mistral said the released version was an upgrade from the one unveiled three weeks ago, following testing with governments and corporate users, which helped improve its performance.
该公司称，机构可以在自己的系统上使用该软件，从而减少对第三方提供商的依赖。
The company said organisations could use the software on their own systems, reducing dependence on a third-party provider.
Mistral称这是其面向网络安全用途的最强大的公开可用模型，将在一个由中国AI模型主导的领域展开竞争。
Mistral described it as its most capable openly available model for cyber-security use, competing in a field dominated by Chinese AI models.
“我不愿意生活在一个不存在开放权重的世界里，”Mistral科学副总裁皮埃尔·斯托克说。
"I'm not comfortable living in a world in which open weights do not exist," Mistral Vice President of Science Pierre Stock said.
他补充说，模型一旦发布，“就不可能限制访问”。这既保护用户不会被切断访问，但也意味着任何人都可以使用它。
Once the model is out, "it’s impossible to contain access," he added. That protects users from being cut off, but also means anyone can use it.
