I don't know. Government funds have a unique way of being often wrong, so this may be the kiss of death. But it is a sign that the EU is helping Mistral.
Imagine the fund were distributing to several teams, but let's say Z.ai and Deepseek were european and among them. What percentage would be allocated to Mistral in that case? OK, the other two aren't, but in the same vein, should the EU fund be saving its powder until such a project shows up?
It's possible to be a waste of European money that could be better used elsewhere, though. I think the same about LeCun's company sucking up the little funding here.
Yea i got about 900k - they have since added a "Gift usage" section under settings/
My Quota
The kimi.com interface also seems to indicate they can be used there (the badge to say its using gift quota is there for me).
However under Usage Details/Gift Quota it seems to indicate that it is consuming it via kimi code and sure enough my usage is reflected there from kimi cli. Odd and a tad vague

At least in the UK computer generated code has been copyright-able for decades [1]

And the ToS of the major/minor AI providers as far as i can tell have no opinion on what you do with the code in terms of ownership.
