nvestors keep score with growth rates, but this quarter you had to read the footnotes and the fine print. Microsoft put up eye-popping Azure growth again, but a big slice of that acceleration is AI inference — notably ChatGPT — now embedded in the revised Azure definition - great for headlines but not conducive to apples-to-apples comparisons. Meanwhile, AWS delivered the largest dollars and a very clear message that demand exceeds supply. Meaning growth is capped by power and components, not pipeline. That creates a weird optics penalty — AWS showing growth in the high teens growth on a $120B-plus run rate and it's a “concern.” But it also telegraphs future upside as capacity lands and depreciation cycles through. The stealth story is Google. Google Cloud posted a strong print with solid top-line growth and steadily improving operating margin — and GCP (the IaaS/PaaS core) is growing materially faster than Cloud overall - our estimate is nearly 40%. Backlog is building at more than $250M and $1B+ deals are real. As the mix shifts toward AI-heavy, infrastructure-centric workloads, it becomes a tailwind for Google, continues to lag the scale of AWS and Azure. Let's call it a disciplined scale strategy with less noise.The other common thread is a capex arms race that faces real constraints. All three players said the quiet part out loud — power, sites, servers, power and lead times will dictate who wins AI inference and who monetizes it. Microsoft is capacity-constrained, AWS says “several quarters” to rebalance, and Google raised capex again. This is not a one-quarter story; it's a multi-year land-and-power grab that will determine margin structures for the next cycle. Meanwhile, the Big three cloud players are on a pace to spend about $240B this year on CAPEX with AI revenue coming in at about 10% of that figure. We clearly have a big hurdle before that massive investment pays back.

Yet, through his grit and determination, he's scaled his business without investors or shortcuts. His success story is a testament to what can be achieved when an entrepreneur is willing to face adversity head-on.Now, David is sharing the raw, unfiltered lessons he's learned from building a business from the ground up, inspiring others to take that same leap into entrepreneurship, no matter how daunting it seems.

It's almost unthinkable the son of a just departed president could be as unhinged as Hunter Biden. The former first son is sitting down for interviews and firing shots at everyone else in the democrat party and it's glorious. Oh, and he's not doing his dad's legacy any favors in the process despite the fact he's trying to help. House Speaker Mike Johnson says he's not afraid to investigate Barack Obama for his role in operation Russia Hoax. But Johnson stops way short of making any promises. Newt Gingrich has written a brilliant column showing how the Congressional Budget Office works against Republicans, and especially Mr. Trump. Wait until you hear the numbers. Salvy hit two more bombs as the Royals blast the Cubs. Man, when this guy is hot, the Royals are hard to beat. What a legend. We are usually a big fan of Colin Cowherd but wait until you hear why he thinks the Chiefs will finish third in the division this year. The Big 12 rejects $250 million from the University of Memphis to join the league and we remember one of the stars of the Cosby Show.

About Greg Shove:Greg is the CEO of Section and a 6x founder and CEO of tech-powered companies that rode 3 previous tech waves—Internet, Cloud, and Mobile—with $250M in exits. He's also a founder at Machine and Partners, an AI consultancy helping companies identify and prototype AI products, and Personal Math, a newsletter for professionals in their 30s and beyond. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Greg Shove discuss:AI's ability to expose organizational dysfunction and enhance well-run systemsHow leaders must adapt their mindset to effectively integrate AI toolsThe growing influence of AI on coaching, learning, and professional developmentShifting definitions of human experience in an increasingly AI-mediated worldThe ethical and strategic implications of AI usage in business environments Key Takeaways:Before implementing AI, leaders must audit internal workflows to ensure structured processes. Otherwise, AI will simply magnify existing chaos and inefficiency.Developing AI fluency through consistent, hands-on interaction builds confidence, especially for non-technical users, and lays the groundwork for meaningful integration into daily work.AI-driven role-playing and adaptive conversation tools are already replacing traditional, static training methods in soft skill development, especially in coaching and feedback scenarios.Creating shared AI “projects” loaded with company knowledge enables collaborative problem-solving, faster onboarding, and continuous organizational learning.
