Summary
The newsletter argues that the shift from training large AI models to deploying agentic AI at scale, combined with the rise of distributed multi-campus data centers, will fundamentally reshape network traffic demands. This creates a durable investment case for the networking layer of AI infrastructure, though the full analysis is behind a paywall.
  • AI deployment is moving from single question-answer exchanges to autonomous agents, changing the volume and character of network traffic.
  • Distributed multi-campus data centers are emerging as a key architectural trend, driving new networking requirements.
  • The article positions the networking layer as the 'layer beneath the layer' of AI buildout, implying sustained demand for networking components.
