NVIDIA released Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-GGUF on March 16, 2026, a 4-billion parameter small language model (SLM) designed for edge deployment on devices like Jetson Thor and GeForce RTX. The model features a hybrid Mamba-2 and Transformer architecture with a 262K token context window and supports both reasoning and non-reasoning modes via system prompts.

ABB and NVIDIA have partnered to deploy physical AI simulation in factory automation, addressing the critical sim-to-real gap that has limited intelligent robotics deployment. The approach uses digital physics simulation to train models that transfer reliably to actual factory floors, reducing production hurdles and securing measurable ROI.
