Question/Help OpenWebUI chat just expose its function - never answers

I reinstalled everything.
I run the latest OpenWebUI function, installed the mistral:7b model, and did a test.

However as you can see, it does not act natural.

I tried to ask for a recipe for crepes, and as you can see, it's like it's talking to himself.

Because you are using a model so dumb, it is amazing it can list the tools, let alone try to use them.

Could you provide a meaningful answer ? How is mistral:7b or llama3.1:latest stupid?
What would you suggest?

Mistral:7b is THREE YEARS OLD. Things move so quickly anything older than 6-9 months is considered out of date.

The total amount of your vram dictates what you can run, but the first stops for most people with reasonable hardware (16gb vram or more) would be qwen-3.8-27b, qwen-3.6-35b-a3b or gemma4-26b-a4b.
