Addressing AI’s ROI Challenges: The “ROI Gap” in AI Infrastructure
A major challenge in the AI industry is the ROI gap from large infrastructure investments. As AI models grow more complex, infrastructure costs rise, but returns from AI applications have not kept pace.
The AI Infra Summit will address this issue by bringing together infrastructure and application leaders. A new Enterprise AI track will highlight strategies for monetizing AI and improving ROI, helping businesses maximize the value of their investments. The broader conference will focus on innovations to make AI infrastructure faster, more efficient, and cost-effective.
A One-Stop Shop for AI Infrastructure and Application Integration
The expanded event will serve as a comprehensive forum for enterprises to evaluate infrastructure investments and enhance AI system performance. By gathering experts across the AI spectrum — from silicon to data centers to applications — the summit will offer actionable insights for optimizing AI infrastructure.
The Head of Data & AI Banking at Bank of America highlighted how AI infrastructure involves overlap across different layers, from silicon to applications, with vendors integrating software to streamline hardware use. The AI Infra Summit will capture this end-to-end approach, providing valuable insights for organizations looking to maximize their AI investments.
