Liquid AI's LFM2.5-24B-A2B model targets single-GPU deployment for agents

Liquid AI has developed LFM2.5-24B-A2B, a 24 billion parameter model designed for on-premises agent deployment. The model features a mixture of experts (MoE) architecture, with only a fraction of its parameters active per token, contributing to its efficiency. Despite its size, the model is intended to run on a single 48 GB GPU, with a substantial context window of 131,072 tokens. However, the article notes that achieving this efficiency depends on specific configurations and the serving engine used, with potential challenges arising from batching requests and the model's license terms.

    Serving LFM2.5-24B-A2B on one 48 GB GPU: the flags, the traps and what to measure

    <p>Liquid AI built LFM2.5-24B-A2B for agents on your own hardware. It has 24.0B parameters in total, the learned numbers that make up the model. Only 2.45B of them work on each token, the word piece a model reads and writes. Liquid ships an official FP8 checkpoint, a copy that st…
