What does it actually take to explain AI and cloud strategy to a room full of executives who've been doing things the same way for 30 years? In this episode, I sit down with Shweta Keshavanarayana, a Customer Solutions Manager at Amazon Web Services, to talk about everything from growing up in Bangalore to architecting the 2012 London Olympics streaming platform at just 22 years old.
Shweta breaks down generative AI and cloud adoption in a way that anyone can understand (her go-to test: can you explain it to an 8-year-old?). We get into what businesses actually get wrong when moving to the cloud, why the phrase "garbage in, garbage out" should be everyone's AI mantra, and how better prompting can completely change what you get back from tools like ChatGPT and Claude.
We also have a real conversation about what it's like being the only woman in the room in big tech, why self-advocacy is a skill you have to build like a muscle, and how her "I Am Remarkable" workshops have helped hundreds of people find the confidence to speak up for themselves.
