Show HN: How Stale Is Your AI? Release age and training cutoff for 20 models

A new site tracks release dates and training cutoffs for 20 AI models across 8 labs, exposing months-long staleness gaps.

A community-built page, launched via Show HN, tracks release dates and training cutoff dates for 20 current models from 8 labs including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta, Mistral AI, Alibaba, DeepSeek, and xAI. Only 10 of the 20 models have lab-published cutoff dates, with data available as models.json. For example, GPT-6 Astra shipped September 3, 2026 with an April 30, 2026 cutoff. The page argues web search tools paper over, but never close, the staleness gap.

Mistral AI raises 3 billion euros in Europe's largest-ever tech funding round despite lagging behind rivals

Mistral AI closed a €3 billion Series D led by Samsung Electronics, valuing the lab at over €21 billion.

Mistral AI raised €3 billion in what it calls the largest equity round ever by a European tech company, lifting its valuation past €21 billion after ASML valued it near €12 billion in September 2025. Samsung Electronics leads the round with EQT's Scaleup Europe Fund and PSG Equity as co-leads; new investors include Advent, BlackRock-managed funds, and Luxembourg. The company also took an $830 million loan in March to fund its own data centers and serves 125+ enterprise customers including Airbus, ASML, and HSBC. Mistral Medium 3.5 trails open rivals like Qwen and Kimi and doesn't compete with top closed US models.
