Photonic Interconnects: The Next Constraint
Episode 6: Photonic Interconnects – The Next AI Bottleneck
For the past several years, the AI industry has been focused on one constraint: compute. More GPUs. Larger clusters. Faster processors.
But that bottleneck is changing.
As AI systems continue to scale, the limiting factor is no longer simply how much compute we can build, but how quickly data can move between processors, servers, racks and entire AI factories. Increasingly, the constraint is the network itself.
In this episode, we explore photonic interconnects and explain why the future of AI infrastructure will be built on light…
