AI's Secret Weakness - The Importance of Network Connectivity in the AI Era | Lightstorm

AI's Secret Weakness isn't the GPU. It's the network connecting it. As AI workloads become increasingly distributed across data centers and compute locations, the network interconnecting them becomes critical to how efficiently those workloads perform. Training, inference and other AI workloads place different demands on the network. High bandwidth alone is not enough. Latency, jitter, throughput, tail latency and predictable performance can all influence how effectively distributed compute works as one system. This video explores why AI networks need to be engineered around the behaviour of the workloads they carry and why the next generation of AI infrastructure will require more than simply adding capacity. At Lightstorm, we are building a deterministic network fabric designed to connect distributed compute with the performance, scalability and predictability AI workloads demand.
