Using Runpod's MCP servers connected to an AI agent like Claude Code or Cursor, the audience will experience infrastructure-by-conversation in action and you will see me listing running pods, spinning up a GPU training pod, standing up an autoscaling serverless endpoint, and shutting it all down just by typing what they want, and learn about the opportunities and challenges that exist in this new paradigm, as well as how they might impact developer communities like this one. ## Speaker ### [Jessica Garson Beauchemin](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/@jessica-garson-beauchemin) Developer Relations Lead, Community at Runpod ## Related talks at this congress - [Trust, But Verify: Continuous GPU Validation at Scale](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2026-north-america/sessions/1690-trust-but-verify) — Kyle Bell - [Autonomous Infrastructure: Building AI Agents for Global-Scale Capacity Efficiency](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2026-north-america/sessions/1403-autonomous) — Tommy Tran - [Agents That Own Their Inference: Building Production AI Agents on Dedicated GPUs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2026-north-america/sessions/1717-agents-that-own) — Duan Lightfoot - [AI-Powered Incident Triage: How We Built GenAI Agents with MCPs to Automate On-Call Workflows](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/events/world-congress-2026-north-america/sessions/1682-ai-powered-incident) — Prakshal Doshi ## Watch remotely Can’t make it to San José?
