Qualcomm at AI Infra Summit 2026: Building the New Architecture for Agentic AI

At AI Infra Summit 2026, Tony Pialis, EVP & GM of Data Center at Qualcomm, examines how the shift from chatbots to autonomous AI agents is reshaping data center design. As inference workloads, token generation, and power demands continue to grow, he explores why the industry must rethink infrastructure around efficiency, memory, connectivity, and system-level optimization, while sharing Qualcomm's vision for the future through its Qualcomm Dragonfly portfolio of data center technologies. • Why tokens-per-watt is emerging as a critical metric for evaluating AI infrastructure at scale • How advanced memory architectures and memory locality can help overcome the industry's growing bandwidth constraints • The evolution from monolithic GPU-centric systems to specialized platforms combining CPUs, accelerators, networking, and open software ecosystems Learn more: Qualcomm Data Center Products | Qualcomm Dragonfly #AI #DataCenter
