A Khronos Roundtable on Open Compute Standards

Building the Foundation for Accelerated AI

Join Khronos for a live roundtable on the critical role of foundational, cross-vendor acceleration standards in the evolving AI landscape. As AI workloads expand across cloud, edge, and on-device deployments, the need for open, low-level compute acceleration APIs that reduce development friction and support broad hardware portability is more urgent than ever.

This session will share preliminary insights from the Khronos AI Ecosystem Research Project, highlighting current industry trends and gaps—and will preview the forthcoming public release of the Khronos AI Research Database. Learn how Khronos standards provide scalable, portable AI acceleration and are enabling new use cases, including neural shaders and on-device mobile inferencing. Discover how Khronos is exploring how to shape open, performant acceleration at the base of the AI stack—and how you can get involved.

This session is ideal for AI framework, compiler, and runtime developers, as well as silicon vendors seeking to support and leverage a vibrant, cross-platform AI software ecosystem.
