about this INTENSIVE

Understanding today’s AI stack is the difference between building something that lasts and getting left behind. The stack now runs from foundation models to data lakes, orchestration layers, deployment pipelines, and the interfaces end-users actually touch. But there’s more noise,and more choices,than ever before.
This session gives you a clear, up-to-date roadmap for how best-in-class teams are designing, assembling, and deploying their AI stacks, across industries and at every scale. You’ll learn what tools, platforms, and integrations are essential, what’s hype, and what will actually set you apart.
Christopher Lafayette draws on firsthand experience and direct work with founders, CTOs, and enterprise operators. Whether you’re building from scratch or modernizing legacy infrastructure, this intensive is your shortcut to Focus.
