NVIDIA officially introduced Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, an open 30B parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with only 3B active parameters.
The model is specifically built for "always-on" AI agents to complete high-volume, specialized tasks faster. It delivers up to 4x the output speed of similar-sized models, making it highly suitable for running multiple parallel agents quickly on local hardware.
