Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

Mistral's New Ultra-Fast Translation Model Gives Big AI Labs a Run for Their Money (www.wired.com)

The Paris-based AI lab released two new speech-to-text models: Voxtral Mini Transcribe V2 and Voxtral Realtime. The former is built to transcribe audio files in large batches and the latter for nearly real-time transcription, within 200 milliseconds; both can translate between 13 languages. Voxtral Realtime is freely available under an open source license.

At 4 billion parameters, the models are small enough to run locally on a phone or laptop—a first in the speech-to-text field, Mistral claims—meaning that private conversations needn’t be dispatched to the cloud. According to Mistral, the new models are both cheaper to run and less error-prone than competing alternatives.
