Zero Cold Starts: Serverless AI Agents on Akamai Functions — Thorsten Hans

Thorsten Hans shows how to build MCP servers and AI agents with Spin, the open-source WebAssembly framework, and run them on Akamai Functions, a globally distributed serverless platform with no cold starts. The talk explains why WebAssembly suits edge-native AI workloads, live-codes MCP servers with wasmcp in TypeScript and Rust, deploys them worldwide with one command, and closes with a Vercel AI SDK agent backed by a Linode GPU model and memory snapshots that keep apps warm.

Agentic Sites: Building Hyper Personalized Websites — Carlos Sanchez, Adobe

Carlos Sanchez from Adobe presents "Agility Sites," a novel approach to building hyper-personalized websites in real-time. By dynamically generating specific content blocks and grounding responses in the site's corpus, these sites achieve an "audience of one" experience. Key innovations include rapid LLM inference (1.1s average latency with Cerebras), continuous model evaluation for speed and accuracy, and leveraging user intent to deliver tailored content, as demonstrated by an on-the-fly camping coffee machine page and an AI conference comparison site.
