Pedregal: Granola's inference costs will stay flat or rise as queries expand
“What I do expect is I expect the cost of inference to stay the same or go up as we allow users to do much more complicated queries over much larger data sets.”

Prediction Not checkable as stated
Fu predicts increasing hardware diversity, particularly for AI model inference
“I'm sure NVIDIA will still do great and still grow beyond their five trillion dollar company or whatever it is at the time of recording. But I think you're going to see a lot more diversity especially around, I think inference of the model.”

Katti: Modern AI model training consists heavily of inference workloads
“We don't like to make a distinction between Training and infants, because a lot of training is now infants. So when we train a new model, we are generating synthetic data, for example. That's inference. When we train a new model, we are doing post-train, and t…”

Trojanowski: Cheaper inference is replacing graphs and embeddings for agent ontologies
“As models are getting cheaper and cheaper, more and more of that actually can just be done using inference instead of using determined, like things like graphs or things like embeddings.”
