Can the New Mathstral LLM Accurately Compare 9.11 and 9.9?
Mathstral is a new 7B model by Mistral AI for math reasoning, with a 32k context window and Apache 2.0 license. It aims to improve common sense in math problem-solving, deployable locally with LlamaEdge and shareable via GaiaNet for customization and integration.

Mathstral is a new 7B model by Mistral AI tailored for math reasoning and scientific exploration, featuring a 32k context window and available under the Apache 2.0 license. While advanced LLMs like GPT-4o can tackle complex math problems, they may lack common sense, as highlighted by their struggle to discern basic math concepts. Mathstral aims to bridge this gap, showcasing its ability to reason through a common math question accurately. The model can be run locally using LlamaEdge, a Rust + Wasm stack, simplifying deployment without complex toolchains. Additionally, GaiaNet project enables sharing Mathstral with friends and customizing its usage, offering an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint and a web-based chatbot UI. This trend emphasizes how fine-tuned open-source models can excel in specialized domains compared to larger closed-source counterparts. GaiaNet goes beyond model deployment, allowing prompt manipulation, context addition, and integration of proprietary knowledge bases for more grounded responses.

Mathstral: 7B LLM designed for math reasoning and scientific discovery
MathΣtral, a new 7B model by Mistral AI, focuses on math reasoning and scientific discovery, inspired by Archimedes and Newton. It excels in STEM with high reasoning abilities, scoring 56.6% on MATH and 63.47% on MMLU. The model's release under Apache 2.0 license supports academic projects, showcasing performance/speed tradeoffs in specialized models. Further enhancements can be achieved through increased inference-time computation. Professor Paul Bourdon's curation of GRE Math Subject Test problems contributed to the model's evaluation. Instructions for model use and fine-tuning are available in the documentation hosted on HuggingFace.
13 commentsNo… they can’t. That’s like saying a search engine can solve math problems — which it can, in a sense.
I suspect that the people repeatedly saying this simply lack the knowledge to know what really constitutes a ‘complex math problem’.
And of course any half-decent new model can answer this particular question correctly; the designers aren’t stupid or unaware of what the expectations and common traps are. The model itself probably will be able to talk about why testing on such comparisons would be interesting (because it ‘knows’ about how this being a recent meme).
> "The 7B mathstral model answers the math common sense question perfectly with the correct reasoning."
Answers perfectly, sure. But the word "reasoning" is anthropomorphism and promises a level of cognitive ability that LLMs do not possess.
Version 9.11 is greater than 9.9
Decimal 9.9 is greater than 9.11
Wrong. GPT-4o gives me the correct answer to this question, 9.8.
(Note that the logic in the response from the LLM is blatantly nonsense).
