At the Snapdragon Summit, Liquid AI CEO Ramin Hasani announced Liquid Context on Snapdragon, a memory layer for on-device agents with read, compress, and write capabilities.
Key points:
- With user permission, device signals are turned into an understanding of routines, preferences, and needs
- That personal context serves any agent the user chooses — local, cloud, or hybrid
- A companion Liquid Agent runs on LFM2.5-2.6B, optimized for Qualcomm's Hexagon NPU
- OEMs get a shared foundation for personal context plus a ready-built embedded agent
The announcement followed a day-2 fireside chat between Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon and Hasani on co-designing hardware, models, harnesses, and agents for efficient on-device AI at scale.
