Elvis Saravia says agents need GPUs for inference and CPUs to run code in the same workflow, and he wants rental options that fit those changing needs.
He points readers to Ed Goode and Shadeform, which Goode says is announcing six new features for its platform this week. Goode says compute prices have risen in 2026, minimum contract durations have tripled, and near-term capacity is scarce.
Very excited for this.
Ed’s point about compute access in the era of agents is spot on.
Plus, AI infrastructure needs changes to meet the demands of agentic engineering.
Agents may need GPUs for inference and CPUs to run code in the same workflow (e.g., co-evolution of model and harnesses). I want rental options that fit those changing needs.
Follow @edsgoode and @shadeformai this week for cool launches around this.
The compute market has been a wild ride in 2026. Prices have skyrocketed, minimum contract durations have tripled, and near term capacity is few and far between. At the same time, agents are becoming a primary user of compute themselves, and not just GPU compute. It’s clear that the existing rental models and platforms across the industry no longer fit the reality we see today. That’s why this week we’re announcing six new features for the Shadeform platform 👇️
