Inference Stack Innovation with Crusoe
'Gradient Descending' is a series of roundtables on AI: curated deep dives with technical builders. Past roundtables discussions covered RL Environments, Evals, Fine-Tuning, Agent Frameworks, Open Source Models, and Knowledge Graphs with companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Scale AI and many more.
For this session, we’re joined by Erwan Menard, SVP at Crusoe. The discussion will focus on best practices for training and inference optimisation. Crusoe is a neocloud backed by Founders Fund, Bain Capital Ventures, and more, offering Managed Inference via Crusoe Cloud.
Expect an honest discussion with a curated group of founders and operators building in AI.
