AI overview

Liquid AI has released the LFM3 series, a set of multimodal models built on a shared backbone that integrates text, vision, audio, and general modalities. The series includes four 2-billion-parameter models: LFM3-1.7B, LFM3-VL-2B, LFM3-Audio-2B, and LFM3-Omni-2B. The text-focused LFM3-1.7B is approximately 1 GB at 4-bit precision and supports a 256K context window. Newly developed visual and audio encoders are included to accelerate processing. The release emphasizes specialized multimodal capabilities built upon the LFM3-1.7B backbone, marking Liquid AI's expansion into integrated audio-visual processing.

    Liquid AI releases LFM3 family of specialized multimodal models built on shared 2B parameter backbone

    Liquid AI introduces LFM3, a new generation of Liquid Foundation Models ranging from 1.7B to 2B parameters that unify text, vision, audio, omni, and decision models on a single shared backbone. Key improvements include a tri-hybrid architecture combining short convolutions and attention, enabling LFM3-1.7B to outperform the larger LFM2.5-2.6B with 35% fewer parameters. The text model fits within approximately 1 GB at 4-bit precision and supports a 256K context window for on-device agent deployment. Four specialized model variants -- text, vision, audio, and omni -- are derived from the base model and can be fine-tuned on a single GPU. LFM3-1.7B-Base was pre-trained on 22 trillion tokens, with the final 3.5 trillion tokens focused on agentic traces and tool calls to extend the context window.
