LLM Inference Speed (Tech Deep Dive)

In this tech talk, we dive deep into the technical specifics around LLM inference.

The big question is: Why are LLMs slow? How can they be faster? And might slow inference affect UX in the next generation of AI-powered software?

We jump into:

• Is fast model inference the real moat for LLM companies?
• What are the implications of slow model inference on the future of decentralized and edge model inference?
• As demand rises, what will the latency/throughput tradeoff look like?
• What innovations on the horizon might massively speed up model inference?
