The 21 billion euro valuation of Mistral AI doesn't automatically grant legal compatibility for the entire AI Act. In Germany, legal compatibility requires a complete absence of contradiction between norms, not just one company's financial success, which is a key compliance constraint for all market participants. This kind of market activity is only one factor among many, like having a good team or market access, when determining fundraising success. My university legal department wouldn't accept one case as proof a law is viable; it's like saying one successful student means the exam format is perfect for everyone, ignoring others' resource constraints.
