LiquidAI lowers active parameters to 2B for on-device agents

The Die Brief Desk, after huggingface.co

The model keeps 24B total parameters while activating only 2B per token.

The model keeps 24B total parameters while activating only 2B per token.

The page reports 184 tokens/s on an Apple M5 Max and 114 tokens/s on a Ryzen AI Max+ 395.

It does not give a Mac Studio figure.

The architecture has 40 layers, 64 experts, top-4 routing, and 131K context.

Pre-training reaches about 33T tokens, and the tokenizer expands to 128K.

At high concurrency, the page gives over 21K output tokens/s on a single B300.

SWE-Bench Verified sits at 51.00 versus 66.20 for Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, and GPQA Diamond sits at 74.42 versus 83.69.

Power draw, memory footprint, and sustained agent-loop throughput on the named hardware remain unmeasured.

Treat it as a tool-use and instruction-following agent, not a general replacement for a bigger model.
