At the Global Peering Forum 2026 in Panama City, Matt Griswold joined a panel asking "Is an AI Peering Exchange Possible?"

Josh Snowhorn of Quantum Loophole moderated the discussion, with Thomas King of DE-CIX, Richard Petrie of LINX, Jeff Budney of Verizon and Matt "Grizz" Griswold of Open Pipes taking part.

This isn't a recap of their discussion or an account of the panellists' views. The title itself got me thinking: what do we actually mean by an AI Peering Exchange?

The Chicago Open Pipes route servers are now live.

Tomorrow I'm heading to Des Moines for the Midwest Peering Summit 2026, and I'll be talking about Open Pipes.

Back in November I said Chicago Open Pipes was coming soon. On March 16th it stopped being "soon" — we passed our first real traffic.
