Nvidia has introduced the latest version of its multimodal and open Nemotron model family, known as Nemotron 3.5 Lightning. This development aims to enhance the performance of agent-based artificial intelligences by enabling them to operate faster, more cost-effectively, and with greater flexibility across various environments, from local PCs to cloud data centers.

In addition to Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, Nvidia has also presented the open-source solution NeMo Switchyard. This library provides components that facilitate model routing for AI agents, significantly accelerating the handling of workloads for these agents.
