What does it take to build intelligent systems that are not only AI-powered but also secure, scalable, and grounded in real-world needs?
In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Srinivas Chippagiri, a senior technology leader and author of Building Intelligent Systems with AI and Cloud Technologies. With over a decade of experience spanning Wipro, GE Healthcare, Siemens, and now Tableau at Salesforce, Srinivas offers a practical view into how AI and cloud infrastructure are evolving together.
We explore how AI is changing cloud-native development through predictive maintenance, automated DevOps pipelines, and developer co-pilots. But this is not just about technology. Srinivas highlights why responsible AI needs to be part of every system design, sharing examples from his own research into anomaly detection, fuzzy logic, and explainable models that support trust in regulated industries.
The conversation also covers the rise of hybrid and edge computing, the real challenges of data fragmentation and compute costs, and how teams are adapting with new skills like prompt engineering and model observability. Srinivas gives a thoughtful view on what ethical AI deployment looks like in practice, from bias audits to AI governance boards.
For those looking to break into this space, his advice is refreshingly clear. Start with small, end-to-end projects. Learn by doing. Contribute to open-source communities. And stay curious.
Whether you're scaling AI systems, building a career in cloud tech, or just trying to keep pace with fast-moving trends, this episode offers a grounded and insightful guide to where things are heading next. Srinivas's book is available on Amazon under Building Intelligent Systems with AI and Cloud Technologies, and you can connect with him on LinkedIn to continue the conversation.
