NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Lightning and NeMo Switchyard Cut AI Agent Costs by Two-Thirds

Nvidia Nemotron 3.5 Lightning and NeMo Switchyard

NVIDIA unveiled Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, a 30-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model designed for high-volume agentic AI tasks, delivering up to 4x faster output and 30% faster task completion. Alongside it, NeMo Switchyard, an open-source model routing library, intelligently directs each request to the most suitable model, cutting task completion costs to nearly one-third of using a single frontier model. Both are available for customization and deployment across PCs, workstations, data centers, and the cloud.
