$500 billion. That’s the investment into ChatGPT alone.

For context: South Africa’s GDP is $380 billion.

Are you choosing a platform that will still exist in 5 years—or one that locks you in and dies out?

Running a large language model in-house feels like control. 🌍

But in many countries, the infrastructure isn’t there: no power, no cooling, no cost efficiency.

Private cloud isn’t a compromise. It’s survival.

We talk about the real cost of keeping an in-house LLM alive.

Most CEOs pick an AI platform without realising they’ve stepped into a geopolitical chess game. ♕♗

The fight for AI dominance isn’t about talent or models. It’s about who controls the energy, the chips, and the rules.

What must leaders consider before committing to AI?

🤖 Just handing teams ChatGPT or Copilot is only the start. True magic happens when you prime AI and work with it to unlock ten times the value 🚀

🌍 Blimey, AI’s on the move: 92 million jobs at risk by 2029 yet 170 million new roles will emerge. Rather than fear the change, learn the language; AI fluency is the new gold dust for business.

🔥 Saudi just plugged $600 BILLION straight into America’s power grid:

🛡️ $142 Bn into weapons
⚙️ $80 Bn into AI & cloud
🔋 $20 Bn into U.S. data centres
🏙️ $358 Bn into next-gen cities & infra
Prince MBS met with Altman, Musk, Jassy, Huang, Su, Fink & co, not to buy tech, but to OWN the pipes.
This isn’t just an investment. It’s a supply chain seduction:
🇺🇸 America gets capital.
🇸🇦 Saudi gets leverage.
🌍 The rest of us? Just became spectators in the most expensive handshake in history.

This is my office tonight...

I've been travelling to #CapeTown for 21 years now.

We have an office here and a number of clients.

I have family here.

I spent countless days and nights working and exploring.

Yet, it's always new.

There is something magical about this city.
