A lot of conferences are about the What of AI. This one is about the How – that is, the underlying infrastructure needed to support AI. This means the silicon, systems, and applications, plus security, standards, and laws to provide the framework for success. Attendees will come away with increased understanding of challenges and solutions in providing the infrastructure needed to support the fast-growing AI industry.
This new conference is industry-driven, consistent with the IEEE goal concerning Industry Engagement. Improving IEEE’s work with industry has been identified as a key activity for IEEE in general, and a priority for IEEE President Tom Coughlin as he notes in his “Let’s Get Practical” paper.
Goldman Sachs estimates that $1 trillion will be spent on AI-related capital expenditures in coming years, including significant investments in data centers, chips, other AI infrastructure, and the power grid.
Leadership for this conference includes IEEE-CNSV members Michael Condry and David Snyder. If you agree this conference will be an important place to communicate about your organization, you may wish to have a table at the event.
