Liquid AI launched LFM3, a new generation of its Liquid Foundation Models, with six model instances:
- LFM3-1.7B: text with 256k context, claimed #1 on the Pareto frontier of on-device intelligence.
- LFM3-VL-2B: vision-language with video input for spatial understanding; 1.9B params, claimed competitive with the 6x larger Gemma 4 12B, Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite, and GPT-5.6 Luna.
- LFM3-Audio-2B: voice chat, tool calls, and reasoning in 18 languages.
- LFM3-Omni-2B: vision + audio + language in one model.
- d1-2B / d1-Omni-2B: "decision models" outputting typed results with calibrated probabilities in a single pass; Omni adds audio input.
