Description
On June 23, 2025, Microsoft unveiled Mu, an innovative 330-million-parameter encoder–decoder language model specifically crafted to enhance the agent experience within Windows environments by effectively translating natural language inquiries into function calls for Settings, all processed on-device via NPUs at a remarkable speed of over 100 tokens per second while ensuring impressive accuracy. By leveraging Phi Silica optimizations, Mu’s encoder–decoder design employs a fixed-length latent representation that significantly reduces both computational demands and memory usage, achieving a 47 percent reduction in first-token latency and a decoding speed that is 4.7 times greater on Qualcomm Hexagon NPUs when compared to other decoder-only models. Additionally, the model benefits from hardware-aware tuning techniques, which include a thoughtful 2/3–1/3 split of encoder and decoder parameters, shared weights for input and output embeddings, Dual LayerNorm, rotary positional embeddings, and grouped-query attention, allowing for swift inference rates exceeding 200 tokens per second on devices such as the Surface Laptop 7, along with sub-500 ms response times for settings-related queries. This combination of features positions Mu as a groundbreaking advancement in on-device language processing capabilities.
Description
The Nemotron 3 Nano stands out as the tiniest model within NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 lineup, specifically designed for agentic AI tasks that require robust reasoning and conversational skills while maintaining cost-effective inference. This hybrid Mamba-Transformer Mixture-of-Experts model boasts 3.2 billion active parameters, 3.6 billion when including embeddings, and a total of 31.6 billion parameters. NVIDIA asserts that this model offers greater accuracy compared to its predecessor, the Nemotron 2 Nano, all while utilizing less than half of the parameters during each forward pass, thus enhancing efficiency without compromising on performance. It is also claimed to surpass the accuracy of both GPT-OSS-20B and Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 across various widely-used benchmarks. With an 8K input and 16K output setting utilizing a single H200, the model achieves an inference throughput that is 3.3 times greater than that of Qwen3-30B-A3B and 2.2 times that of GPT-OSS-20B. Additionally, the Nemotron 3 Nano is capable of handling context lengths of up to 1 million tokens, further establishing its superiority over GPT-OSS-20B and Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507. This remarkable combination of features positions it as a leading choice for advanced AI applications that demand both precision and efficiency.
