The Next Cloud Shift: Decentralization, SaaS, and the AI Race with Ash Young & Mike McDonough | Ep. 12

In this continuation of our last episode, Ryo Koyama, Ash Young, and Mike McDonough dive deeper into the future of cloud, decentralization, and AI in the data economy. They debate the balance between decentralized clouds and hyperscalers, the fate of SaaS in an AI-driven world, and how Microsoft’s OpenAI bet challenges AWS and Google.

They also explore why data (not compute) is the ultimate asset, along with philosophical questions about AI’s reliability and whether we should ever accept a singular truth from machine intelligence.
