Who’s Ready for Anything at GTC26 The Real Challenge of AI with Baseten

Philip Kiely, Head of AI Education at Baseten and author of “Inference Engineering,” explains why inference, not training, is the biggest challenge in AI today. Filmed at NVIDIA GTC 2026, this discussion explores why inference is the next essential AI discipline for production AI. Learn why running models reliably, efficiently, and at scale is emerging as a critical discipline for every AI-driven company. Key takeaways: Why inference engineering is now essential for production AI systems The hidden complexity of running models at scale with low latency and high reliability How teams should think about optimizing performance, cost, and scalability Why an incremental, real-world approach is key to deploying AI successfully GTC 2026 recap: https://www.coreweave.com/nvidia-gtc-...
