Hey AI enthusiast,
Welcome to the 40th edition of the One More Thing in AI newsletter.
This time we have the latest on Mistral - the French answer to ChatGPT and a list of AI tools that I have grown to love.
Best regards,

In this edition:
Le Chat: The AI Assistant That Just Might Replace Your Research Team
Ever wished for an assistant who works at lightning speed and understands exactly what you need? Mistral AI’s latest tool, Le Chat, is built to do just that—helping you research, plan, and automate tasks without breaking a sweat.
Blazing-Fast Responses
Le Chat processes up to 1,000 words per second, giving you answers instantly. No more wasting time waiting for insights. Take a look at this video that does a comparison with ChatGPT and Claude:
Smart, Reliable Information
It pulls knowledge from pre-trained data, real-time web searches, news, and social media. That means more accurate and well-rounded answers. No cutoff on information!
Understands Documents and Images
Need help with PDFs, spreadsheets, or pictures? Le Chat’s advanced vision and text recognition can analyze them quickly. Yes, I know this is not really cutting edge, but it brings Mistral up to par with the rest of the AI chatbots!
Runs and Explains Code
For tech users, Le Chat runs and tests code, analyzes data, and even creates visualizations.
Creates High-Quality Images
With Flux Ultra (one of the best image models as of now), Le Chat can generate all kinds of images—from realistic photos to creative designs.
Affordable for Everyone
Most features are free (so there, DeepSeek and ChatGPT!). Want even more power? The Pro plan is just $14.99/month not $20 per month that the others charge. I think that this price point for all AI chatbots is heading further down in the months to come.
Designed for Businesses
Companies can use Le Chat Enterprise to integrate AI into their workflows while keeping data secure. This is key because privacy and data security is what European tech companies are going to use as their differentiating factor.
Even More Features Coming Soon
Soon, you’ll be able to connect Le Chat to emails, documents, and databases. It will also automate routine tasks, making work even easier (we wrote about AI Agents earlier).
The Bottom Line
Le Chat isn’t just another chatbot—it’s a full-scale assistant that can save you hours every day. With its upcoming ‘Memories’ feature, it will even remember your preferences and work habits.
If you’re still doing research, analyzing data, or managing tasks the old way, Le Chat might just change how you work forever.
