The funds will be used by the business to keep growing both its operations and its growth initiatives.

Stephen Pagliuca (Chairman and CEO PagsGroup) said, “We invested in Liquid AI, because we felt this was the Dream Team of artificial intelligence. Their technology will greatly reduce the cost of AI for companies versus the current Transformer-based models and remains adaptable beyond training. It also allows for explainability as opposed to the black box of existing models. It’s a triple threat technology that can be used as a foundational model for functional applications and vertical markets as well.”

Joseph Jacks (Founder and General Partner at OSS Capital) said, “Liquid’s approach to advancing the state-of-the-art in AI is grounded in the integration of fundamental truths across biology, physics, neuroscience, math, and computer science. We believe that trans-disciplinary approaches will unlock the greatest levels of acceleration towards the most efficient breakthroughs.”
