Why this model scores 48.2

Base-model capability is moderate, but permissive weights, efficient inference and straightforward fine-tuning create very high diffusion and substantial residual control difficulty.

MODEL-ATTRIBUTED EVIDENCE

News tied to Mistral NeMo 12B Base

The model score of 48.2 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.08

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.

Capability TOWARD

Mistral AI and NVIDIA release Mistral NeMo

Mistral AI and NVIDIA released Mistral NeMo 12B base and instruction checkpoints with a 128K context window, multilingual and coding capability, function calling, Apache 2.0 weights and hosted API access.
