Within a few years, liquid cooling will be standard across the industry and agentic AI will be as ordinary and everyday a tool as Excel or PowerPoint, with its complexity abstracted away from end users.

Thierry predicts liquid cooling becomes ubiquitous and agentic AI turns into a mundane, everyday tool for end users, as commonplace as Excel or PowerPoint. ✦ AI generated

If we look back in a couple of years at what we've, what we're doing today as we build out AI infrastructure, what will seem quaint or crazy?

I think we'll definitely be at liquid cooling across the board. I think that's something that will happen, and I think that, agentic capabilities will be every day. I think it'll be like using Excel, using PowerPoint, I think, and it's end users that will be empowered as well to do that.

13:52I think we'll definitely be at liquid cooling across the board. I think that's something that will happen, and I think that, agentic capabilities will be every day. I think it'll be like using Excel, using PowerPoint, I think, and it's end users that will be empowered as well to do that. it seamlessly, the complex will be abstracted, but I think the adoption and implementation of that will be utilized on a day-to-day basis.

14:16Kaushik? For me, I think, I think this whole on-prem versus cloud debate, I think, will be like, "What were we thinking?" I think customers are gonna choose hybrid. They are gonna smart enough to pick what workloads go on cloud, which one will go on prem. This project-oriented view of AI, I think, will go away. And, just like we don't ask whether we need email servers, we're not

14:39gonna ask, do we need AI factories? Should we put AI factories in our budget next year?" I think that would be, like we'll look back and say "Oh, we used to think that way." and then the last thing is just like how we feel about gen AI versus agentic AI now. I think physical AI is gonna be around the corner, and physical AI, when these machines and

15:02robots have all the power and capability of like agentic AI, we're gonna look back at this time and say, "Oh, is that, remember the time when we were like all excited about agentic AI?" it's pretty exciting times ahead. Kaushik, Thierry, thank you both for joining me for this special edition of the Twiml Briefing Room. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you.
