Why AI Startups Will Disappear Without Compute Markets — Evan Conrad, San Francisco Compute

Evan Conrad explains how San Francisco Compute went from an AI lab forced to sublease its own GPU cluster to an operator of supercomputers and a market for compute. He lays out the chain of risks facing new labs and inference companies, from sold-out capacity and oversized deposits to late, broken clusters and unpredictable demand, and argues that these form one credit-driven risk problem that a working compute market must solve.

Data Architecture for AI: From Training Pipelines to Agent Memory

Alan Kourev, co-founder and CTO of VAST Data, explains how AI workloads (training, inference with KV cache offload, RAG, and agents) access data in fundamentally different ways, and presents a disaggregated, shared-everything architecture, shaped in part by work with CoreWeave, that serves all of them from one unified platform.

Building the Cloud for AI Agents | AWS CEO Matt Garman

a16z's Raghu Raghuram interviews AWS CEO Matt Garman about how AI is reshaping cloud infrastructure: why startups remain central to AWS, how cloud primitives like databases, permissions, and sandboxes must be rethought for agents, how GPU capacity is allocated amid $220B in capex, and how Graviton and Trainium fit into the AI stack. The discussion also covers enterprise barriers to autonomous agents, data privacy with Bedrock, and AWS's own internal use of agents.
