AI in Infrastructure Podcast

Enterprise leaders are confronting a shift in which infrastructure now encompasses hardware, data platforms, governance, privacy, and the broader foundation required to support AI. In this launch episode of the Enterprise AI Infrastructure Podcast, Daniel Faggella, CEO and Head of Research at Emerj Artificial Intelligence Research, examines how this expanded definition of infrastructure is reshaping what it means to build the modern enterprise in conversation with the host. The discussion highlights the practical implications across hardware choices, data foundations, governance requirements, and the emerging rules of work between people and AI.

AI infrastructure projects are failing not because the technology underdelivers, but because organisations commit capital before establishing the business case. In this episode, Juan Orlandini, CTO at Insight, examines why enterprise AI programs stall and outlines how leaders can apply decades of established IT investment discipline to evaluate, validate, and scale AI initiatives with measurable outcomes in mind. The conversation covers organisational change management across employee adoption segments, the application of FinOps principles to AI infrastructure spending, and a minimum viable proof of concept approach for validating AI investments before scaling.
