Emerging narrative

The AI industry is bifurcating into two stacks: the 'safe' stack (Google + Nvidia + US government) and the 'risky' stack (Anthropic + open-source + MCP ecosystem). Google's SQL win and Nvidia's agentic benchmark are creating a vertically integrated enterprise AI platform that bypasses Anthropic's MCP ecosystem. Meanwhile, Vera Rubin's memory supply chain is being locked in, with memory makers (Samsung, Micron, SK Hynix) competing for Nvidia's business, while Intel pivots to a memory/IO role. Anthropic faces existential regulatory pressure that may accelerate enterprise adoption of Google's stack.
