Seize the Data #15 - Context Is King with Ashish Kumar Jha
Vishnu’s stories span 2002 to 2026. In all of them, the technology changes and the problems stay the same. Projects that ship on time still disappoint, because IT and the business define success differently.
In this episode of Seize the Data, Datalogz CEO Logan talks with Ashish Kumar Jha, a digital transformation and analytics leader with 19 years of experience across the US, Europe, and Southeast Asia. Recorded in Hyderabad, the conversation explores what changes when AI lets anyone build anything, and why business context, not speed, decides what actually gets adopted.
Ashish and Logan cover the move from traditional SDLC to AI-driven development, why semantic layers struggle to keep up with a changing business, the hidden cost of token consumption, and how GCCs are maturing from cost arbitrage to value creation. The episode closes on a problem every enterprise now faces: conflicting intelligence, where different teams, tools, and agents produce different answers to the same question.
