What happens when AI stops advising and starts acting? Agentic AI promises autonomy, speed, and a new level of intelligence in how systems operate. But as these systems begin to pursue goals and make decisions, the risks become harder to predict. In this episode of The AI Forecast, Paul Muller sits down with futurist Nell Watson, AI ethics expert and co-author of “Safer Agentic AI: Principles and Responsible Practices,” to explore what safe, responsible AI looks like in this new era.

In this video, Dipankar breaks down how Apache Iceberg works under the hood - starting from the limitations of Hive-style tables to why Iceberg was built in the first place. He covers: Why Hive-based tables break at scale (Netflix example) How object storage changes the problem (S3 behavior, listing, throttling) Iceberg architecture (catalog, metadata, snapshots, manifests, data files) How query planning works step by step Why Iceberg is a specification — not an execution engine.

AMD's Sid Karkare discusses how the Cloudera Data & AI Platform powered by AMD EPYC CPUs creates a converged architecture to support Agentic AI. Together they enable enterprises to break down data silos to gain critical data insights & actions. Chapters.

AI governance is the Achilles heel of most enterprises. As organizations accelerate AI adoption, boardrooms face urgent questions about cybersecurity, compliance, resilience, and regulatory risk. In this episode of The AI Forecast, Paul Muller meets with Shoshana Rosenberg, author of “Practical AI Governance: Building a Program for Oversight and Strategy,” and creator of the Prism AI Governance Framework, about how leaders can build adaptable AI governance programs that strengthen their resilience to this susceptibility.

We're witnessing the rise of the multi-sapien workplace with humans working alongside AI agents. Tune into The AI Forecast to hear by agentic AI needs to be managed like human teams. This conversation goes beyond technology; Tatyana also reflects on leadership and representation in tech, challenging assumptions about opportunity, and exhibiting why diverse ways of thinking are critical in an AI-driven world.

For our enterprise customers, data isn’t just a resource, it’s the engine for future growth. In this overview, Manuel Calvé (Head of Partnerships at Conduktor) explains why the Cloudera + Conduktor alliance is the "Gold Standard" for the modern data enterprise. By combining Cloudera’s hybrid open data lakehouse with Conduktor’s precision Kafka management, we are enabling industries like Finance and Manufacturing to turn streaming data into a high-trust, revenue-generating asset.

*Does your enterprise have governance over teams of AI agents?* This week, Tatyana Mamut, PhD, joins The AI Forecast to talk about why agentic AI needs to be managed like human teams. This conversation goes beyond technology; Tatyana also reflects on leadership and representation in tech, challenging assumptions about opportunity, and exhibiting why diverse ways of thinking are critical in an AI-driven world.

Are your AI initiatives stuck in pilot mode? Siloed data, disconnected tools, and compliance a constant headache? Sending sensitive data to the cloud for model training is a non-starter, especially for regulated industries. Cloudera AI changes the game. Cloudera is the only data and AI platform that delivers the secure cloud experience anywhere—public clouds, data centers, and the edge. We provide the foundation you need for real AI, real scale, and real business impact—without ever giving up control.

From econometrics to anthropology to leading roles at Salesforce, AWS, and Nextdoor, Tatyana shares how her background shaped a fundamentally different approach to leadership. Drawing on her unconventional journey, she explains why agentic AI is forcing leaders to rethink how they manage technology, shifting from systems to a focus on teams, culture, and governance. Together, Tatyana and Paul share their perspectives on.

Modern enterprises are currently overwhelmed by massive, fast-moving data in various formats that traditional legacy warehouses simply cannot manage. Cloudera addresses these complexities with its open data lakehouse powered by Apache Iceberg, providing a single, seamless, and optimized view of all your information.
