Hi everyone!

This is a really smart approach from Liquid AI. The smart play for on-device models isn't trying to be an all-powerful generalist, but to specialize. Trying to achieve "small parameters, but capable of everything" is a trap, at least for now.

Liquid Nanos gets this. Instead of one model, they've released a whole family of small, task-specific ones: one for data extraction, one for RAG, another for tool use, and even one for math.

The real path forward is "small parameters, but powerful in a specific domain." Liquid AI's roadmap is pragmatic and clearly aligned with this trend.
