Sarah Osentoski on Inference Demand and the Physical Constraints Shaping AI Infrastructure
In this TechTV panel discussion, Sarah Osentoski joins Bill Mew and other industry experts to discuss how the AI infrastructure landscape is evolving as inference demand grows.

Hardik Kabaria on why hardware design requires a different kind of AI
In a new conversation with Maribel Lopez on The AI with Maribel Lopez, Hardik explains why AI for physical systems must be evaluated differently than AI for language, code, or content workflows. In engineering, determinism, validation, and deployment trust are not preferences. They are requirements.

Hardik Kabaria on How AI and Physics Reinvent Hardware Design
In a conversation with James Maguire on TechVoices, Hardik Kabaria explains why applying AI to physical systems requires a different standard than applying AI to language, code, or content.
