When AI needs to think faster, the architecture beneath it matters more than ever.
Val Cook, Chief Software Architect at Blaize, joins The AI Forecast to unpack how today’s AI systems demand more than raw compute, but more adaptable infrastructure. He and host Paul Muller explore the critical intersection of hardware and software, the growing importance of data flow machines, and the limits of traditional architectures in real-time environments.
They examine the emerging hybrid approach to AI, balancing centralized and Edge computing, and why dynamic use cases require systems that can react in the moment. Cook also emphasizes that innovation, not scale alone, will define the future of AI and that the teams that rethink the foundation will build what’s next.
