Physical AI

Building AI for the Physical World

with Alex Spinelli & Eystein Stenberg & Gerardo Pardo-Castellote

Thursday 24 September 11:00 AM – 11:30 AM Tech Leaders Stage

About This Session

AI is moving out of the datacenter and into devices, vehicles, and machines. Building for the physical world is different from building for the cloud: compute and power are constrained, connectivity is not guaranteed, and shipping an update means reaching hardware in the field. What matters when building, deploying, and running AI under these conditions.
