Mistral just updated its open source Small model from 3.1 to 3.2: here’s why


The fact that it is made by a French startup and compliant with EU rules and regulations such as GDPR and the EU AI Act also helps its appeal

According to Mistral AI, Small 3.2 is better at adhering to precise instructions and reduces the likelihood of infinite or repetitive generations — a problem occasionally seen in prior versions when handling long or ambiguous prompts. However, as AI power user and influencer@chatgpt21 posted on X: “It got worse on MMLU,” meaning the Massive Multitask Language Understanding benchmark, a multidisciplinary test with 57 questions designed to assess broad LLM performance across domains. With noticeable improvements in reliability and task handling — particularly around instruction precision and tool usage — Small 3.2 offers a cleaner user experience for developers and enterprises building on the Mistral ecosystem.
