Fast inference is becoming increasingly important for agents.
As proactive, always-on agents rise and demand for multi-agent systems for complex tasks grows, heterogeneous compute matters. @general_compute is solving a critical problem here, and this @positron_ai partnership makes a lot of sense.
General Compute (@general_compute): Our heterogeneous cloud just got better. We’re announcing a cluster scale deployment of @positron_ai as our next partner.
We believe demand for fast inference will outstrip supply for the next decade. Our bet on Positron is another step towards getting fast inference for
