LFM2.5-2.6B matches Qwen3.5-9B at 3x size, unlocking on-device agents
helloiamleonie · x · 2026-09-25
Liquid AI's Leonie summarizes why a small, fast, agentic-capable model changes the game: agents can run for free in the background on phones, laptops, robots and cars, several at once. LFM2.5-2.6B's deliberate architecture makes it small and fast for its size class, and the 2.6B model is competitive with Qwen3.5-9B, which is 3x its size.
