Voxtral reportedly matched 100 of 107 reference words in a test on an 1891 Eiffel recording

A user tested Mistral AI's new Voxtral transcription model on a noisy French phonograph recording of Gustave Eiffel from 1891. They say it matched 100 of 107 words in INA's published excerpts, a 6.5% word error rate, and transcribed 75 additional words omitted from that reference. The user says it handled Eiffel's dictation well but struggled with proper names and some guest dialogue.
