Adam is one of the most impressive young founders I have met. He presented his founding story at our last year‘s AGM and I was immediately blown away. This founder will make a dent in the universe! @adamguild
Unveiling our new startup Advanced Machine Intelligence (AMI Labs).
We just completed our seed round: $1.03B / 890M€, one the largest seeds ever, probably the largest for a European company.
We're hiring!

I am joining @ylecun and an exceptional founding team to lead @amilabs as CEO.
We have secured a $1.03 billion USD seed round to fuel our mission to build intelligent systems capable of truly understanding the real world—a long-term scientific endeavor.
We’ve raised €1.7B to accelerate technological progress with AI!
This Series C funding round, led by @ASMLcompany, fuels Mistral AI scientific research to keep pushing the frontier of AI to tackle the most critical technological challenges faced by strategic industries.
We're back to school! Very proud of our team accomplishments, and honored to partner with @ASMLcompany in our next phase. We're very excited to push frontier AI capabilities in science and technology, with exciting releases ahead.
Le partenariat annoncé aujourd’hui entre Nvidia et Mistral AI est à la fois unique et historique !
Nous avons les atouts, les talents, l’énergie, les infrastructures, ainsi qu’un écosystème de startups de la French Tech particulièrement dynamique. Tout cela est essentiel pour notre souveraineté et notre autonomie stratégique.
Nous sommes déterminés à les préserver — nos services cloud, nos centres de données et nos capacités de calcul doivent rester sous notre contrôle pour protéger cette intelligence.
Choose France !

Please read this about open banking regulation how it needs to be reformed to bring value and innovation. Happy to speak whenever
EU ent. help me spread this so she sees it!
Everyone says Europe can't compete with America in tech.
But Mistral's 'Le Chat' just proved them wrong:
• 13x faster than ChatGPT
• 100% open-source
• Completely free (vs $20/month)
The European AI breakthrough Silicon Valley didn't see coming 🧵:
A new model to hasten AI progress. 24B, 81% MMLU, no RL for now! We're super excited to see the latest development in international open-source AI (kudos to Deepseek!), and cannot wait to bring new contributions to it. We're renewing our commitment to using Apache licenses. AI brings joy: accelerate.
Over the past months I’ve increasingly encountered questions about “Europe’s decline in tech”. I wanted to share my response to these questions here. While I am realistic about Europe's modest past success, and that there are no trillion dollar companies, I am optimistic about its future. In fact, I "put my money where my mouth is" and chose to bet my career on it – I have been doing venture on the continent for over a decade instead of moving to Silicon Valley.
Here are some of my thoughts on the topic.
