Keynote Address by Gilad Shainer at Hot Interconnects 2026
Don’t miss NVIDIA SVP of Networking Gilad Shainer on the keynote stage at Hot Interconnects 2026. In “Networking Innovations for Gigascale AI Systems,” we’ll explore how the network has become the defining architecture of gigascale AI as infrastructure scales to hundreds of thousands, and soon millions, of interconnected GPUs. Expect a deep dive into the innovations enabling gigascale infrastructure to train massive foundation models, power real-time inference pipelines, and interconnect federated AI factories globally.
