Tech isn’t evolving right now. It’s colliding. AI datacenter economics are cracking, AWS re:Invent turned into an AI monolith, VCs are levitating, robots are stepping into the real world, and people keep declaring “the cloud is dead” while quietly running everything on it.In today’s #ShimmySays, Alan Shimel pulls these threads together to reveal the bigger picture forming beneath the headlines. We’re entering one of the largest technological shifts in decades, and this episode cuts through the noise to show why the decisions we make now will define the next 50 years of computing.

Tune in at 2:30 PM ET and share your thoughts in the comments. #shimmysays #techstrongtv #alanshimel #tstv
