AI & the 100x network
What if the network you signed off on 18 months ago was already obsolete the day AI workloads hit it?
That's not a hypothetical. AI traffic patterns look nothing like the traffic our networks were designed for (did you know that automated traffic grew nearly 8x faster than human activity in 2025?). The capacity math has changed. The architecture assumptions have changed. And most enterprises are only starting to catch up. If at all.
In this session, Rick walks through what's actually happening on enterprise networks. What's actually breaking, what's holding up, and what to start fixing now so you're not the one explaining a 4am outage to the board.

Can’t join live? Register anyway. We'll send you the recording and the slides as soon as the session wraps, so you can watch it on your own time.
What we’ll talk about
- The 100x Network: how AI is rewriting internet traffic
The shape of traffic has shifted, with research showing that AI traffic has surpassed human traffic. Still, "more bandwidth" isn't the answer. - Why today's network architecture wasn't built for this
The assumptions baked into your current setup (peering, transit, regional aggregation) were made for a pre-AI world. Rick unpacks where those assumptions break. - What to fix now, and what to plan for next
Is this a today-problem or a 2027-problem? (Spoiler: both.) Rick will provide a practical view of what’s worth looking into now versus the architecture conversations worth starting now.
Who’s it for?
- A network engineer trying to figure out what AI workloads will actually do to your backbone
- An IT or network manager planning capacity, contracts, or architecture for the next 18 months
- A procurement lead being asked to sign off on infrastructure that has to last past 2027
Here to help you navigate the world of global connectivity, making it simple, transparent, and at your fingertips.
