Everyone’s racing to adopt AI, but what if your systems can’t keep up?



In this episode of Tech Talk, we speak with Tammy Tan, Country Manager at Red Hat Malaysia, about the infrastructure gap that’s holding many businesses back. They explore why cloud alone isn’t enough, how virtualization and hybrid cloud can help, and what companies need to get right before scaling AI.

Where would your business be in 10 years time? How about 5 years from now? Or even tomorrow? Chances are, you’re already in the age of a digital business. Tech Talk is the programme that gives you access to the minds that are shaping the world of tomorrow. Hear from global and regional experts and analyst, record breaking developers, the dark-web hackers and the “crazy ones” as they give you an insight to how the world will change. Tech Talk helps you to breakdown the geeky jargons and complex codes that many often would fear. Also find out what are some the latest consumer offerings like smartphones, drones, robots, cameras, video games that are best in the market and quirky insight to a mind of a digital pop culture technology advocater, Richard Bradbury.

How does the Internet work? To be honest we don't know either. But on Tech Talk, we deconstruct the relationship between humans and technology and understand how it shapes our business and life.

AI Is Hungry. Is Your Infrastructure Ready?

Employees leaking company secrets. Traceability gaps blocking production. 74% of organisations regret their AI vendors. The rush to adopt artificial intelligence is creating massive blindspots. Daren Tan of ALPHV Technologies joins Tech Talk to unpack the expensive realities of enterprise AI deployment and how to stop "Shadow AI" in its tracks.



Learn More About:




The Shadow AI Threat: Employees using free-tier consumer AI tools pose a massive cybersecurity risk, requiring strict endpoint management and enterprise legal contracts to prevent proprietary data leaks.


Escaping Pilot Purgatory: Enterprise AI projects often fail to scale because leaders chase consumer-level "magic" without engineering for compliance, traceability, and localised hardware costs.


Traceability & Explainability: Organisations must build step-by-step reporting tools to justify AI decisions (such as rejecting a bank loan) to ensure accountability when system errors occur.


The "Human in the Loop" Safeguard: To manage unpredictable edge cases, companies must deploy fail-safes and manual override triggers that pause autonomous workflows when model performance degrades.


Agentic AI & Open Claw: The next frontier of enterprise automation involves autonomous AI agents executing complex device-level tasks, driving a surge in localised processing hardware like Mac Studios to avoid staggering cloud token costs.

Shadow AI & The True Cost Of LLMs

There’s a new sheriff in town. Can Roshan Kanesan bring the outlaw Matt Armitage to heel? It’s unlikely when you consider that the first topic today is Wetware, where brains on chips learn to play the classic game Doom and biocomputing enters the cloud. 



Matt also outlines plans to fell millions of hectares of the Arctic’s boreal forest and sink them in the ocean in the name of saving the planet. And the weird lessons we can learn from fungus eating ants and rocks about carbon sequestration. 



All of this as cover, just to make batteries sound exciting.

MSP357. Weird Science: Fungus, Rocks And Brains On Chips

AI can now write software, debug systems, and generate entire applications in minutes. Some technologists are even claiming that coding is effectively “solved.”



But if AI can write the code, what happens to software engineers? Do we still need to learn programming? And why are companies still struggling to find technical talent?



On this episode of Tech Talk, we speak with Sharma Lachu, Founder and CEO of Accendo Technologies, about whether AI has truly solved coding, how teams can maximise productivity with AI tools, and what the future looks like for developers and engineers in an AI-driven world.
