Update 4/3/2024: We have updated this post to add information about the new Paris Region availability for Amazon Bedrock, and provided a new resource link for guidance on inference requests.
Last month, we announced the availability of two high-performing Mistral AI models, Mistral 7B and Mixtral 8x7B on Amazon Bedrock. Mistral 7B, as the first foundation model of Mistral, supports English text generation tasks with natural coding capabilities. Mixtral 8x7B is a popular, high-quality, sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, that is ideal for text summarization, question and answering, text classification, text completion, and code generation.
Today, we’re announcing the availability of Mistral Large on Amazon Bedrock. Mistral Large is ideal for complex tasks that require substantial reasoning capabilities, or ones that are highly specialized, such as Synthetic Text Generation or Code Generation.
At the AWS Paris Summit today, we also announced that Amazon Bedrock is now available in the Paris AWS Region, adding to the list of exciting news.
What you need to know about Mistral Large:
- It’s natively fluent in English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian, with a nuanced understanding of grammar and cultural context.
- It has a 32K token context window allowing precise information recall from large documents.
- Its precise instruction-following enables you to design your moderation policies – the folks at Mistral AI used it to set up the system-level moderation of their beta assistant demonstrator le Chat. Your first interaction with Large Language Models (LLMs) revolves around prompts, so the art of crafting effective prompts is essential for generating desirable responses from LLMs. In this Amazon Bedrock guide we provide further details on how to make inference requests to Mistral AI models.
Getting started with Mistral Large
To get started with Mistral Large on Bedrock, you first need to get access to the model. On the Amazon Bedrock console, select Model access, and then select Manage model access. Next, select Mistral Large, and then select Save changes.
Once you have access to Mistral Large, you can use the model on Bedrock. Refresh the base models table to view the updated status.
To see the complex reasoning aspect of Mistral Large in action I tried the following prompt in the Playgrounds section:
Prompt
<s>[INST]Calculate the difference in payment dates between the two customers whose payment amounts are closest to each other in the given dataset: '{ "transaction_id":{"0":"T1001","1":"T1002","2":"T1003","3":"T1004","4":"T1005"}, "customer_id":{"0":"C001","1":"C002","2":"C003","3":"C002","4":"C001"}, "payment_amount":{"0":125.5,"1":89.99,"2":120.0,"3":54.3,"4":210.2}, "payment_date":{"0":"2021-10-05","1":"2021-10-06","2":"2021-10-07","3":"2021-10-05","4":"2021-10-08"}, "payment_status":{"0":"Paid","1":"Unpaid","2":"Paid","3":"Paid","4":"Pending"} }'[/INST]
Output
To find the difference in payment dates between the two customers whose payment amounts are closest to each other, we first need to parse the given dataset. We can use the pandas library in Python to convert the dataset into a DataFrame for easier manipulation. Here's the Python code to achieve this: ```python import pandas as pd from datetime import datetime # Given dataset data = { "transaction_id": ["T1001", "T1002", "T1003", "T1004", "T1005"], "customer_id": ["C001", "C002", "C003", "C002", "C001"], "payment_amount": [125.5, 89.99, 120.0, 54.3, 210.2], "payment_date": ["2021-10-05", "2021-10-06", "2021-10-07", "2021-10-05", "2021-10-08"], "payment_status": ["Paid", "Unpaid", "Paid", "Paid", "Pending"] } # Convert dataset to DataFrame df = pd.DataFrame(data) # Convert payment_date column to datetime format df["payment_date"] = pd.to_datetime(df["payment_date"]) # Calculate the difference between all pairs of payment amounts amount_diffs = df["payment_amount"].sub(df["payment_amount"], axis=0).abs().combine_first(df["payment_amount"].sub(df["payment_amount"], axis=1).abs()) # Find the minimum difference min_diff = amount_diffs.min().min() # Find the indices of the two customers with the closest payment amounts closest_indices = amount_diffs[amount_diffs == min_diff].stack().index.tolist() # Get the customer indices customer_index1, customer_index2 = closest_indices[0] # Get the payment dates
Earlier in this post I mentioned that Mistral Large is natively fluent in several languages, with a nuanced understanding of grammar and cultural context. I tested the model’s understanding of the French language:
Prompt
<s>[INST]Lequel est le plus lourd une livre de fer ou un kilogramme de plume[/INST]
Output
Une livre de fer pèse environ 0.453 kilogramme, tandis qu'un kilogramme de plumes pèse 1 kilogramme. Donc, un kilogramme de plumes est plus lourd qu'une livre de fer. Cependant, il est important de noter que le volume occupé par un kilogramme de plumes serait beaucoup plus grand que le volume occupé par une livre de fer, car les plumes sont beaucoup moins denses que le fer.
Programmatically interact with Mistral Large
You can also use AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) and AWS Software Development Kit (SDK) to make various calls using Amazon Bedrock APIs. Following, is a sample code in Python that interacts with Amazon Bedrock Runtime APIs with AWS SDK. If you specify in the prompt that “You will only respond with a JSON object with the key X, Y, and Z.”, you can use JSON format output in easy downstream tasks:
import boto3
import json
bedrock = boto3.client(service_name="bedrock-runtime", region_name='us-east-1')
prompt = """
<s>[INST]You are a summarization system that can provide summaries with associated confidence
scores. In clear and concise language, provide three short summaries of the following essay,
along with their confidence scores. You will only respond with a JSON object with the key Summary
and Confidence. Do not provide explanations.[/INST]
