Inside the AI stack: Vercel agents & GPU optimisation

This edition of Future Form explores two parts of the modern AI stack. Vercel’s agent infrastructure, including the new Sandbox and what’s on the roadmap. And how to optimise code to run more efficiently on custom CUDA kernels.

Luke Philips-Sheard, Engineering Manager, Vercel
Luke will break down Vercel’s new Sandbox and how it enables secure, isolated environments for running AI workloads and agent-driven tasks. Drawing on experience in finance and high-growth environments, he’ll explore how sandboxing helps manage untrusted code, contain risk, and safely run agents against real systems.

Jack Foxabbott, Founding Member of Technical Staff, Stealth Startup
Jack will dive into Neural Kernel Search and the evolution of custom CUDA for non-standard architectures. A practical look at how low-level optimisation unlocks performance gains that frameworks alone can’t deliver.

If you’re building AI systems that need to run fast, reliably, and at scale, this one’s for you.

Bonus: pizza, drinks, and practical peer-to-peer AI insights.
