The Need for Speed: The Story of How We Achieved Industry Leading TTP | Richard Wareing & Tyler Graf

This presentation shares the high-stakes story of Meta's transformation from lagging behind the industry in GPU platform time-to-production (TTP) to becoming an industry leader. We'll begin by explaining the significance of TTP, providing a brief history of our New Product Introductions (NPIs), including AI platforms. A crash course on NPIs will follow, setting the stage for a deeper dive into the key lessons learned from these experiences. Next, we'll walk you through the major changes that drove our dramatic improvement in TTP and conclude with an overview of our current challenges and future work.
