Liquid AI LFM2.5-2.6B: 2.6B On-Device AI Agents with Agentic RL

🔹 Liquid AI has released LFM2.5-2.6B, a compact model designed to run capable AI agents directly on laptops and mobile devices.
🔹 The model was pretrained on roughly 34 trillion tokens, extended to a 128K context window, and post-trained using SFT, specialist teachers, multi-domain on-policy distillation, and Agentic RL.
🔹 It focuses on tool calling, instruction following, and multi-step agent workflows while competing with significantly larger models.
🔹 Liquid AI reports decode speeds of up to 220 tokens/s on an Apple M5 Max and 113 tokens/s on an AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395.
🔹 We examine why efficient local models could make private, low-cost, always-available AI agents practical on everyday devices.
