Mistral's Le Chonk scores 42% on Dense 200 visual grounding benchmark

Mistral AI says its Le Chonk model scores 42% on the Dense 200 visual grounding benchmark, which tests how precisely a model locates objects in an image.

In a post on X, the company says the score is ahead of frontier closed models. The post gives no comparison figures for those models, and no independent evaluation of the result has been reported.
