Description

LFM3 represents Liquid AI's suite of streamlined, open-weight foundational models designed for a variety of applications, including text, vision, audio, and multimodal tasks. This lineup features variants for text generation, vision-language processing, audio, omni tasks, and decision-making models. Developers have the option to download the model weights, customize the supported models via fine-tuning, and deploy them on local edge hardware, or alternatively, utilize Liquid AI’s hosted API for access. Potential applications encompass conversational agents, tool invocation, speech transcription and synthesis, understanding of images and videos, document extraction, classification, routing, and robotics functionalities. LFM3 aims to cater to developers, researchers, and organizations focused on creating tailored AI solutions that require adaptable deployment options, including the ability for local inference. Furthermore, the open-weight models operate under Liquid AI’s LFM Open License, where the eligibility for commercial use and its associated terms are contingent upon the annual revenue of the organization. This flexibility allows users to tailor their AI implementations precisely to their needs, enhancing the overall utility of the models.

Description

Shieldstral is an innovative multimodal safety classifier with a 3B parameter open-weight structure, adept at assessing text, images, and combined text-plus-image content based on dynamically defined policies during inference. Rather than adhering to a static set of harm categories, it approaches moderation as a binary question-and-answer format: users submit a contextual instruction outlining the evaluation criteria and strictness, pose a yes-or-no safety inquiry, and present the content for assessment. The model processes the “yes” and “no” logits to generate a continuous, calibrated safety score, enabling applications to prioritize or rank outcomes based on confidence levels instead of relying on a single categorical label. This design effectively integrates prompt classification, response moderation, refusal detection, toxicity assessment, and multimodal safety evaluation into a singular interface, empowering teams to modify policies without the need for model retraining. Shieldstral's versatility allows it to analyze prompts, responses, pairs of prompts and responses, images, and images paired with text, making it a comprehensive tool for safety evaluation. As such, it represents a significant advancement in the field of content moderation.
