Mixtral 8x7B
Mixtral 8x7B has no overall index value yet because there are too few independent benchmark results.
40out of 100same as last month
based on search, usage and attention
Summary
What is distinctive about Mixtral 8x7B is its sparse mixture-of-experts computation. A router selects two of eight experts per token; Mistral gives 46.7 billion total parameters and about 12.9 billion active parameters with a 32,000-token context window. The release supports five languages, coding, and Apache 2.0.
The larger variant Mixtral 8x22B retains Mixtral 8x7B’s router-and-expert design.

- 2026-10-17
- Methodology
- Independent evaluation. Exact checkpoint named in the paper: Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1. Zero-shot multiple-choice question answering with the same system prompt for all models, one question at a time, and 16,000-token input length. Task 1 shuffles documents for one patient. The table reports mean accuracy over five runs; sampleCount is the 400 benchmark questions, not five repeated runs.
- Context
- The 75%-79% range is the observed range across five runs, not a confidence interval. No CI is reported. The paper does not specify a served API revision or reasoning-effort setting.

- Methodology
- Independent evaluation. Table 3 names Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1. Zero-shot minimal prompt, no domain-expert instructions, non-reasoning model, 100-step cap; five runs per game. This is the TextWorld aggregate across 10 games; sampleCount is unique games, not attempts.
- Context
- The aggregate table reports no CI. It does not publish the exact serving route, immutable model revision, quantization or a date for this model run. Five runs per game are stated; N here counts games, not multiplied attempts. The authors state that initial-release results include only models reaching at least 90% of the total score in the 100-step Simon Says with Memory mode. Separately, they qualitatively inspect transcripts from nine models scoring highly on the hardest Simon Says mode. This nine-model group is the qualitative subset, not the 34-model zero-shot evaluation set over 122 games.

- Context
- The paper does not describe a separate pooled micro-average denominator for this cell or publish a CI. The 122 is the suite's unique game count; five runs per game are stated.
