At Mistral AI, our mission is to place AI in everyone’s hands. This means democratizing access to advanced AI interfaces, making trustworthy information accessible, and ensuring that everyone can use AI with confidence and trust.
Today, we’re thrilled to announce a significant step forward in this journey: a global partnership with the Agence France-Presse (AFP), one of the leading global news agencies, known for providing fast, comprehensive and verified coverage of the events shaping our world and of the issues affecting our daily lives.
Introducing AFP integration with Mistral AI’s Le Chat
Le Chat, our AI assistant, will now have access to AFP’s newswire stories. This integration allows users to receive responses enriched with factual information that adheres to the highest journalistic standards.
What this partnership brings
- Massive news coverage: This collaboration will amplify the reach of AFP’s journalistic efforts, showcasing the work of their 1,700 journalists worldwide. Enhanced factuality: Le Chat will integrate AFP’s news content, ensuring that responses are grounded in reliable, up-to-date information.
- Multilingual support: Staying true to our multilingual roots, le Chat will leverage AFP’s daily production of 2,300 wires in six languages: French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Arabic.
Why this matters
In a world inundated with information, the integration of AFP’s content will provide Le Chat users with richer and more accurate responses. This enhancement is particularly valuable for enterprises adopting generative AI, ensuring they have access to reliable and sourced information.
This partnership with AFP is just one of the many steps we’re taking to ensure that our users have the best tools at their disposal. Whether you’re using Le Chat for creative projects, research, or any other task, you can now do so with the confidence that your information is backed by one of the world’s leading news agencies.
When to Expect It
We will be rolling out the integration with AFP to all le Chat users in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for updates!
