- For Google-published models use the model name directly, e.g. "gemini-2.0-flash-001". For third-party publishers (Anthropic, Meta, etc.) use the full publisher path, e.g. "publishers/anthropic/models/claude-3-5-sonnet-v2@20241022".
- The examples expect GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT; rename it only if your application config maps the new variable.

About Mistral 7B v0.1
Mistral 7B v0.1 is an advanced open-source large language model built by Mistral AI, consisting of 7 billion parameters. It's designed to deliver high performance and efficiency, outperforming many similar-sized models in various benchmarks. The model employs a transformer architecture with innovative features like Sliding Window Attention, Grouped-Query Attention, and a Byte-fallback BPE tokenizer, enhancing speed, reducing computational costs, and improving robustness. Capable of generating human-like text, following instructions effectively, and excelling in areas such as reasoning and mathematics, Mistral 7B v0.1 does have limitations, such as a lack of built-in moderation and a potential for hallucinations. Subsequent versions have sought to address these limitations while introducing extended context windows and improved instruction-following capabilities.
