Building a local AI agent sounds great until you try to use one all day. The hard part isn’t getting a model to understand you, it’s getting it to choose the right tool and do it fast enough that the experience feels interactive. In regulated industries, the bar is even higher: the agent also cannot send your data anywhere to do it. This is where LFM2-24B-A2B shines: it’s designed for tool dispatch on local consumer hardware, where latency, memory and privacy aren’t abstract constraints; they decide whether your agent is a product or a demo.
