Liquid AI released LFM2.5-Encoder models on Hugging Face, pitching faster long-context CPU inference for document-scale NLP without larger hardware.

NVIDIA is urging LLM developers to co-design models for GPU-friendly inference, betting hardware-aware architectures will cut cost and latency at scale.

Cognichip secures $60M in funding to develop AI that autonomously designs chips, promising to cut development costs by 75% and timelines by half.
