Description

Mercury 2 represents a groundbreaking advancement in reasoning models, specifically designed for real-time voice interaction as it can quickly answer phone calls. Unlike traditional autoregressive models that leave callers in silence while generating responses one token at a time, Mercury 2 employs a diffusion large language model architecture capable of producing over 1000 tokens per second with standard NVIDIA GPUs. This remarkable speed allows it to complete a full reasoning process and begin speaking within a timeframe that aligns with natural conversational flow, effectively shortening the typical wait time from several seconds to approximately 300 milliseconds. The operational mechanism of Mercury models involves transforming clear text into noise, after which a conventional Transformer is trained to reverse this transformation and predict the original text across all positions at once. By utilizing a denoising approach that engages multiple tokens simultaneously, generation becomes more efficient, enabling speeds akin to custom silicon on NVIDIA H100s while improving responsiveness in voice applications. As a result, Mercury 2 not only enhances user experience but also sets a new standard for interactive voice technologies.

Description

NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Lightning is a state-of-the-art mixture-of-experts model boasting 30 billion parameters, of which 3 billion are actively utilized, specifically engineered for efficient, high-throughput performance in long-duration and continuously operating AI agents. This model is tailored for the execution components of agentic systems, adeptly managing frequent operations like tool invocations, output verification, routine commands, and delegating tasks to subagents, while larger reasoning models concentrate on strategic planning and orchestration. By employing a mixture-of-experts architecture, it activates only a select subset of parameters for each input token, marrying the expansive capacity of a larger model with significantly reduced computational demands. The training of this model is optimized for widely used agent harnesses and enhances inference speed through techniques such as speculative decoding, multi-token prediction, DFlash, and DSpark, making it versatile across various operational scenarios. Additionally, it is compatible with BF16 and NVFP4 checkpoints, providing flexibility in deployment from local systems like DGX Spark and GeForce RTX hardware to extensive data center infrastructures. In summary, its innovative design and scalability make it a powerful tool for advancing AI capabilities.
