I recorded this conversation with DJ Sampath at the Cisco AI Summit in San Francisco, at the end of a long day filled with bold claims about AI. What I appreciated about DJ is that he didn’t speak in abstractions. He spoke about constraints. Infrastructure. Security. Data. The real things that determine whether AI moves from demo to production. One line that stayed with me: “AI is obviously moving from chatbots to agents and then possibly to physical AI.” But what happens when agents start acting inside real enterprise systems? That’s where things get serious. In this discussion, you’ll learn: • Why most AI projects fail when they hit infrastructure limits • What the “trust deficit” in AI really means for business leaders • How non-determinism changes the security model • What “agentic ops” looks like in practice • Why every software company will have to become a model company Another powerful insight from DJ: “Developing human judgment… is going to become increasingly important in the age of agents.” Technology scales. Judgment decides. If you’re thinking about deploying agents in your organization, this conversation will give you a grounded, practical lens. Watch the full interview to understand what it really takes to bring agentic AI into production. #CiscoAmbassador #AgenticAI #EnterpriseAI #Cisco #AISecurity #AIOperations #Leadership #DigitalTransformation
