The entire industry is teaching AI to write code. Almost no one is teaching it to run the systems that code lives on. That gap is the biggest open opportunity in infrastructure right now.

In Episode 3 of The Root Cause, Priyank Upadhyay sits down with Randy Bias  VP of Technology & Strategy at Mirantis, co-author of "Pets vs Cattle," inaugural board director of the OpenStack Foundation, and founder of Cloud Scaling (acquired by EMC). Randy was early to the internet, early to the cloud, and is now early to what he believes is the next world-altering shift: AI-assisted operations.

We get into why operators carry 80–90% toil while the tooling ignores them, why founders without operational scars struggle to serve them, the difference between a "sandbox" and a "playground" for agents, why operations is fundamentally a team sport, the one job you can never hand to an agent (judgment), and why domain expertise is the only real moat left in an AI-leveled world.

EPISODE 1
Observability is Done. What Comes Next.

Observability won the last decade by giving humans more data. The next decade is not about more dashboards. It is about systems that understand themselves.

This episode lays out what SRI is, why it had to exist, and what AIOps is getting wrong. Not a product pitch. Not a founder origin story. A worldview episode.
