Intelligence on the Edge: Liquid AI's Ramin Hasani on the Search for Device-Native Foundation Models
"Recently, we have a contract we signed. It's actually a historical one with Mercedes-Benz where our models is going to be powering the audio and also the visual elements inside inside the car. So, whatever, whenever you want to talk to your car, basically the new voice would come out of a Liquid Foundation Model, you know, and we control that with a model that is like giving you the quality of the best models that you have seen so far. What, like, let's say, like the audio models that you've seen like all around, but at the same time it is 600 megabytes."
Mercedes-Benz has signed a contract with Liquid AI to deploy 600-megabyte foundation models for in-car voice and visual intelligence. The deployment demonstrates that frontier-quality AI can run entirely on local automotive processors without cloud dependency, addressing latency, privacy, and reliability requirements for safety-critical applications.
