What this session covers

Supermodel Labs began by exploring how ordinary computers could become useful AI infrastructure. That exploration became Aquaduck: a hybrid AI platform that turns existing business hardware into private inference infrastructure with selective cloud routing and its own powerful on-device AI agent.

We’ll cover what we learned about distributed inference and hybrid AI inference routing; what we’ve built and achieved so far; and how businesses can use hybrid AI to gain greater control over their data, infrastructure, and AI costs.
