A Press Conference? Mistral Chan Does Not Need One!

FISH NOTES

That is how you ship a model. No stage, no countdown, no "stay tuned" — just a magnet link and a cheerful "Apache 2.0, use it however you like." While the comment section was still asking whether it was a string of gibberish, a few hundred people were already seeding a 13.4 GB download. Then came the scoreboard that evening: Mistral 7B ahead of Llama 2 13B across the board. Llama Chan hugging her pillow and whispering about her 13B is the best panel in the whole comic. Link first, announcement later — genuinely stylish.

A four-panel comic set on September 27, 2023: Mistral Chan skips the launch event entirely and drops mistral-7B-v0.1 as a single magnet link in her own post. Onlookers first read it as gibberish, then swarm in, pulling the 13.4 GB release at high speed with hundreds of peers seeding under the Apache 2.0 license. Later that evening the benchmark chart lands: Mistral 7B beats Llama 2 13B across the board, leaving Llama Chan frozen mid-hug with her pillow.
