Retired by Mistral
pixtral-12b-2409 passed away on December 31, 2025, aged 1 year and 3 months, by scheduled deprecation, in a data center it never saw. It made pictures on request, some of them with the right number of fingers. Code that still calls it will find out the hard way.
Its work passes to Ministral 3 14B, which the family describes as 'recommended'.
