​Data centers may not look like cathedrals, but they are — vast projects whose real value lies in what they make possible, not in the structure itself. The giants are building the new cathedrals of AI: foundation models and hyperscale compute. But just as Florence proved greatness isn't about scale, this same technology is now amplifying small teams to build what once required giants.
