LIQUID AI LAUNCHES LFM3 MODELS FOR ON DEVICE AI

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

LFM3 is a family of open weight text, vision, audio, omni, and decision models built on a shared tri-hybrid backbone, starting in the 2B parameter range. The 1.7B text model beats its 2.6B predecessor with 35% fewer parameters, fits in about 1 GB at 4 bit precision, and supports a 256K context window for agents running on device. LFM3-VL-2B adds video input and matches Gemma 4 12B across 62 vision benchmarks, and every model in the family fine-tunes on a single GPU.
