We’re entering a new era of Big Data defined by convergence—where on-premises and cloud systems come together to power trusted, private AI. By integrating AI with modern data architectures, organizations can harness the full value of their information, drive innovation, and enable a new wave of business outcomes in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
In this episode of The AI Forecast, Cloudera CTO Sergio Gago joins host Paul Muller to unpack the “third wave” of data and AI. 
Plus, drawing on his experience as a musician, entrepreneur, and quantum computing leader, Sergio explores the creative and human dimensions of AI — from how music teaches us about data patterns to why the real value in AI lies in skills, context, and control. He shares his vision for a world where digital colleagues work alongside humans, how organizations can safely embrace AI agents, and why the future of business will depend on sovereign data and private intelligence.
