Abstract
In less than two years, “AI” has gone from a nice technical curiosity to a financial, industrial, and publicity juggernaut. Beyond the hype and the inflated stock prices, though, what does this mean from technical perspective?
Just what is it about “AI” that makes architects sit up and take notice? From his unique perspective as Chair of both SNIA and the Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC), J Metz discusses the forces that are influencing technical decisions in both groups, what makes AI different from other, more traditional workload environments, and key problems that are being addressed over the foreseeable future.
