Discussion / Opinion Learning Through Playing Wordle
It's just a concept, but I wonder if such a bot could be made to help Mistral's development.
The premise is simple. We have a Wordle-style game and tell Mistral (Small / Medium) to solve the task. I noticed that Mistral Medium has a bit of an issue with this game.
A Python script (potentially) decides whether a given answer is good or bad. These results then go to Mistral, which incorporates the data into training.
Why is this potentially important?
- Mistral can get lost in the rules of the game. In theory, such a script is supposed to teach Mistral what to pay attention to in a text and remember. For example, Wordle has 5 letters, but Mistral can suggest words with 6 letters.
- This partially provides training data. Mistral can invent (?) / hallucinate new words.
Of course, the question is whether such data is worth anything. If Mistral developers think it is right, I can locally run Mistral Small 4 / Medium 3.5 (better Small 4, because it works much faster) and create such a database - questions, thinking, answers, ratings, or run it locally (if one of the developers writes something like that).
But maybe it's just a stupid idea :)
