Description
Inkling is Thinking Machines’ open-weights foundation model built for customization, multimodal reasoning, and agentic AI workflows. The model uses a Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 975 billion total parameters and 41 billion active parameters, making it large in capacity while activating only a subset of experts per token. Inkling supports up to a 1 million token context window and was pretrained on 45 trillion tokens spanning text, images, audio, and video. It is designed as a broad generalist model with strengths across coding, reasoning, instruction following, factuality, tool use, vision, audio understanding, forecasting, and safety. Developers can tune its thinking effort to trade off latency, cost, and performance, which is useful for production systems that need efficient reasoning at scale. Inkling can be fine-tuned on Tinker, tested in the Inkling Playground, and deployed through partners such as TogetherAI, Fireworks, Modal, Databricks, Baseten, vLLM, SGLang, llama.cpp, and Hugging Face transformers. The model can generate applications, operate tools, create styled artifacts, reason over visual and audio inputs, and support long refinement loops for collaborative work. Thinking Machines also previewed Inkling-Small, a lighter Mixture-of-Experts model with 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters for lower-cost and lower-latency workloads. By combining open weights, multimodal training, agentic capabilities, efficient reasoning, and fine-tuning support, Inkling gives builders a flexible AI foundation for specialized products and workflows.
Description
Liquid AI's LFM2.5 represents an advanced iteration of on-device AI foundation models, engineered to provide high-efficiency and performance for AI inference on edge devices like smartphones, laptops, vehicles, IoT systems, and embedded hardware without the need for cloud computing resources. This new version builds upon the earlier LFM2 framework by greatly enhancing the scale of pretraining and the stages of reinforcement learning, resulting in a suite of hybrid models that boast around 1.2 billion parameters while effectively balancing instruction adherence, reasoning skills, and multimodal functionalities for practical applications. The LFM2.5 series comprises various models including Base (for fine-tuning and personalization), Instruct (designed for general-purpose instruction), Japanese-optimized, Vision-Language, and Audio-Language variants, all meticulously crafted for rapid on-device inference even with stringent memory limitations. These models are also made available as open-weight options, facilitating deployment through platforms such as llama.cpp, MLX, vLLM, and ONNX, thus ensuring versatility for developers. With these enhancements, LFM2.5 positions itself as a robust solution for diverse AI-driven tasks in real-world environments.
