GoKawiilFeaturing Mike Intrator, CEO, CoreWeave Moderated by Harry McCracken, Global Technology Editor, Fast Company The cloud built for the internet era was designed to serve many different workloads. Today, AI demands something fundamentally different. CoreWeave cofounder and CEO Mike Intrator discusses why AI requires a cloud rebuilt from first principles and how that infrastructure and software is helping more people turn ideas into action. This session will help you gain clearer understanding of the massive technological and physical demands behind AI—and the decisions that will determine whether its next phase can deliver on its promise.
Building a cloud designed for AI
Why This Matters
As AI workloads strain infrastructure originally built for general-purpose internet computing, specialized cloud providers like CoreWeave argue that a purpose-built approach is essential to meet AI's massive compute demands. This matters because the choices made in building AI infrastructure now will shape how quickly and reliably AI capabilities can scale for businesses and consumers alike.
Key Takeaways
- Traditional cloud infrastructure wasn't designed for the intensive, specialized demands of AI workloads.
- CoreWeave's CEO argues AI requires cloud systems rebuilt from first principles rather than adapted legacy systems.
- The physical and technological infrastructure decisions made today will determine whether AI's next phase can fulfill its promise.
