CoreWeave Fully Connected 2026 Keynote: Introducing CoreWeave Forge | Built for Adoption
Episode details
Episode description
CoreWeave Fully Connected 2026 Day 1 keynote: the launch of CoreWeave Forge, live demos of agentic AI in production, and the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72. Getting to production is the starting line, not the finish. Deploying an AI agent is step one. Keeping it performing takes a tight, continuous loop between inference, data curation, and model evaluation. In our Day 1 Keynote, Built for Adoption, we show what sets CoreWeave Cloud apart for teams running AI in production. Watch live demos of evaluating, distilling, and rolling out models in one environment, plus a CoreWeave Mission Control agent finding and fixing a live inference failure on stage. NVIDIA debuts the Vera CPU and Vera Rubin NVL72, and engineering leaders from Cognition, Caterpillar, and Capital One share what they’re seeing in production. *Learn more about CoreWeave Forge:* https://docs.coreweave.com/forge *Corey's full Forge demo, on its own:* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7UwZjEVFWA *Forge docs, quickstarts, and API references:* https://docs.coreweave.com/forge *Builder Resource Center, with demos, notebooks, and reference code:* https://www.coreweave.com/builder *Fully Connected 2026, all sessions:* https://www.coreweave.com/fully-conne...
