Brave powers its web browser with Mistral AI

Brave, an open-source privacy-focused web browser with an integrated AI assistant, Brave Leo, has chosen Mixtral 8x7B as its primary model for both the free and premium versions of Leo. According to Brave’s recent announcement, the browser is also leveraging Mixtral’s capabilities for its newly launched CodeLLM feature, which addresses programming-related queries in Brave Search. The combination of Mixtral’s exceptional performance and its open-source nature makes it an ideal choice for integration in Leo, aligning with Brave’s dedication to open models and the open-source community.
