LiquidAI has released LFM2.5-8B-A1B, a model that features an upgraded tokenizer. This enhancement doubles the vocabulary size from 65,000 to 128,000 tokens, specifically addressing issues with fine-grained splitting of certain languages. The upgrade was performed in-place, meaning the model did not require retraining from scratch. AI
