On May 30, French AI startup Mistral AI launched its first large language model (LLM) designed specifically for programming, named Codestral.
This model is proficient in over 80 programming languages, including Python, Java, C, C++, JavaScript, Bash, Swift, and even Fortran, which was introduced in 1957.
Codestral aids developers by completing functions, writing tests, and filling in code, thereby reducing errors and vulnerabilities.
Despite having only 22 billion parameters, it features a context length of 32,000 tokens. Benchmark tests indicate that Codestral outperforms other models like CodeLlama 70B, DeepSeek Coder 33B, and Llama 3 70B in various tasks.
For instance, in the SQL spider benchmark, Llama 3 70B scored 67.1%, while Codestral 22B scored 63.5%. In the MBPP Python benchmark, DeepSeek Code 33B achieved 80.2%, with Codestral 22B close behind at 78.2%.
These results highlight Codestral’s efficiency in handling Python, SQL, and other languages, demonstrating its potential as a powerful tool for developers.
