Episode notes
Real-Time Multimodal Agents Become Practical
- Low-cost, low-latency inference makes real-time multimodal agents and device-integrated AI feasible.
- Use cases like heads-up displays and always-on assistants become practical as per-request cost and lag fall.
Hardware Will Reshape AI Economics
- Faster inference can materially improve cloud economics and gross margins for AI services.
- Hardware that reduces per-request time increases served requests per chip and lowers operational cost.
Shift Inference Off GPUs When It Saves Time
- Move inference workloads to faster dedicated hardware where possible to reduce cost and improve throughput.
- Prioritize using specialized chips for low-latency customer-facing tasks, reserving GPUs for training.
