Liquid D1-3B
3B decision model that answers in milliseconds instead of generating tokens.
About
A different kind of model: instead of generating text, d1-3B returns calibrated yes/no, choice, and score answers in a single forward pass — 8ms on an RTX 4090, 16ms on a Jetson AGX Thor. It takes text and images, scores 48.57 on Liquid's Decision Index 0.2.1 (best under 10B, per the company), and is meant for structured choices inside larger systems like routing, moderation, and approvals.
The catch: it's a decision head, not a conversational model, and deployment needs transformers 5.14+ with trust_remote_code.
