      That may be the weirdest bit of phrasing I’ve seen in a headline in a long while. I thought the link was missing a word, but… nope.

        It’s a pun on the word “Mistral” … not a very good one, but funny to an economist I suppose.

          Oh… Ooooooh.

          That is the most obscure attempt at a pun I’ve ever seen. Holy crap. If your wordplay requires people to be aware of naming conventions for obscure local weather phenomena maybe your joke doesn’t really play.

    Yup, switched to le chat too. Not only is it French, but it also figures out when to use deep think by itself and is a lot faster than it’s competitors.

    Wether it’s an IQ point smarter or dumber is irreleveant, since every model gets smarter all the time.

      If I could use it as a voice-enabled assistant instead of Perplexity, it would be great.

    I cancelled my ChatGPT subscription already and have been trying to make the switch to Le Chat but in some areas— it’s just not there yet. I’m blown away by how fast it is, but one of my main uses is Finnish translation, it’s not so good at it, and also transferring context from chat to chat, the “memories” feature of ChatGPT is a big downer.

        I have already deleted Google Translate in favor of DeepL, but at least in Finnish, DeepL, Google Translate or Le Chat’s translations are nothing compared to ChatGPT’s.
