Modern network complexity has officially surpassed human capacity, and "slapping AI" on top of raw data isn't a viable solution for critical infrastructure. Joining Techstrong TV is Nikhil Handigol, Co-Founder and Chief AI Officer of Forward Networks, to discuss the decade-long journey from Software-Defined Networking (SDN) to the launch of Forward AI. Handigol explains why the future of autonomous network operations must be built on a foundation of mathematical truth—leveraging mathematically accurate digital twins to allow conversational agents to reason, plan, and execute multi-step workflows with unprecedented safety.
