Ministral-3-8B-Instruct-2512 is an 8-billion parameter instruction-tuned language model released on the Hugging Face platform by Mistral AI. It serves as the underlying model for the Le Chat AI assistant and functions as a foundation model for conditional generation tasks.
The model uses the Mistral3ForConditionalGeneration architecture with a mistral3 model type. Its configuration includes FP8 quantization that excludes conversion for the vision tower, multi-modal projector, and language modeling head. The tokenizer defines specific tokens for beginning-of-sequence, end-of-sequence, padding, and unknown. A custom Jinja chat template is provided that sets a default system message identifying the model as Ministral-3-8B-Instruct-2512, an LLM created by the French startup Mistral AI headquartered in Paris, which powers Le Chat and whose knowledge cutoff is October 2023.
It is hosted as a repository on Hugging Face, allowing download and use through the platform's ecosystem for inference or further development. The page includes standard Hugging Face tags such as mistral-common and indicates the presence of a model card.
