SHOW NOTES:

THESIS: Between pending IPOs (Wall St. demands), high user-demand, GPU/TPU shortages, Data Center shortages, Model prices increasing (open models fading away), the cost of using AI is going to get more expensive over time. Should CIOs start thinking about a Backup plan to their current AI adoption that has lower cost alternatives?


Topic 1 - Assuming you could get access to GPUs/TPUs/Accelerators, and suitable data center space to host them, what would be your thinking as a CIO if you felt like you needed to own some aspect of your AI roadmap/journey?

Topic 2 - Assuming the normal “Shadow AI” backlash that you’d receive for offering something that wasn’t “frontier” level, how would you go about trying to communicate that within your organization?

Topic 3 - What metrics or KPIs would you initially target to try and get buy-in that your approach was acceptable and moving towards the company goals?
