gRPC and AI
summary
AI training stresses networks with a near-complete communication mesh, bursty spikes and strong tail sensitivity, so gRPC work focuses on lowering per-RPC cost and avoiding idle GPUs via metadata processing optimizations, optional zero-copy API paths, and experiments with a new transport for DMA-heavy setups (RDMA exists but not universal). A demo shows Gemini converting an OpenAPI/Swagger YAML to a proto, generating unit tests in Go and Python, and producing protos from plain English — the conversions run fast and are immediately usable.
