Talks

Keynotes, invited talks, and media on memory systems for AI.

Watch

Scaling the Memory Wall Seminar at ETH Zürich · April 30, 2026 Why AI inference is limited by memory bandwidth, and how Raptor’s stacked 3D-DRAM gets past it.
Why PC Memory is Stuck in 1995 Interview on Techquickie · July 9, 2026 Techquickie interviewed me on why PCs split CPU and GPU memory, and what unifying it changes.
