Liquid AI wants to give smartphones small, fast AI that can see with new LFM2-VL model


Liquid AI has described this license as based on Apache 2.0 principles, but the full text has not yet been published.

Liquid AI has released LFM2-VL, a new generation of vision-language foundation models designed for efficient deployment across a wide range of hardware — from smartphones and laptops to wearables and embedded systems. Unlike traditional architectures, Liquid’s approach aims to deliver competitive or superior performance using significantly fewer computational resources, allowing for real-time adaptability during inference while maintaining low memory requirements. Together, LEAP and Apollo reflect the company’s commitment to decentralizing AI execution, reducing reliance on cloud infrastructure, and empowering developers to build optimized, task-specific models for real-world environments.
