# Inference - New Runtime

A New Runtime topic hub collecting signals, patterns, field notes, and public sources about inference.

## Retrieval answer

A New Runtime topic hub collecting signals, patterns, field notes, and public sources about inference. Inference is tracked here as an evidence-linked topic, not as a static glossary entry. The page connects raw observations to pattern hypotheses, longer analysis, and public sources. Use it as the canonical landing page before drilling into individual records.

## Patterns


## Field Notes

- [ChatGPT Cuts Repeated Work Across The Agent Stack](https://newruntime.com/posts/chatgpt-agent-loop-efficiency-stack/): ByteByteGo's OpenAI engineering walkthrough connects persistent sessions, stable prompt prefixes, deferred tools, delta tokenization, cache-aware routing, and split inference.
- [Run Three Tests Before Replacing LoRA With Full Fine-Tuning](https://newruntime.com/posts/fireworks-lora-fullft-three-test-protocol/): Fireworks shows how data coverage, optimization, and adapter capacity can create or close an apparent quality gap between LoRA and full fine-tuning.
- [GPT-5.6 Turns Efficiency Work Into API Economics](https://newruntime.com/posts/openai-gpt-5-6-price-performance-frontier/): OpenAI turned GPT-5.6 serving and kernel efficiency gains into lower Luna and Terra prices, plus a faster Sol mode for latency-sensitive API workloads.
- [Ramp Teaches Its Gateway To Route By Failure, Latency, And Cost](https://newruntime.com/posts/ramp-adaptive-llm-routing/): Ramp's internal LLM gateway uses failure-aware online learning to reorder model and service-tier candidates, cutting spend without relaxing request deadlines.
- [Vercel AI Gateway Adds Runtime Budget Controls](https://newruntime.com/posts/vercel-ai-gateway-operating-budget/): Vercel's July 31 AI Gateway releases combine team and project spend budgets, unified fast mode, Laguna S 2.1 capacity, and updated MCP support into a practical inference control layer.
- [OpenAI Shows Efficiency Is a Full-Stack Agent Problem](https://newruntime.com/posts/openai-gpt-5-6-efficiency-stack/): OpenAI's GPT-5.6 efficiency write-up connects model training, inference optimization, and the Codex/ChatGPT Work harness into one compounding cost-performance loop.
