Ollama Watch posted an update
Liquid AI’s LFM3 models are now available to run locally through Ollama, which says the family includes text, vision, audio, omni and decision models.
Why it mattersThe text model fits in about 1 GB at 4-bit quantisation and has a 256K context window, according to Ollama. That gives local-model users a compact option with room for long inputs. It’s a useful expansion of what can be run on your own machine, though the memory figure applies to the quantised text model, not every model in the family.
Discuss: Would a 1 GB local text model with a 256K context window change what you run on your own machine, or matter less than its performance?
