Hugging Face researcher Niels Rogge reports that Liquid AI's LFM3 (1.7B, GGUF) is the first local model that consistently answers "when is Manchester City's next game" correctly on his MacBook. A screenshot shows the model performing web search and Exa-based page fetching on-device, correctly returning date, time, opponent (RB Leipzig), competition (Champions League) and venue, while generating at roughly 1,846 tokens/s. The model is available on Hugging Face.
