Oracle’s DIY AI - Ctrl Alt Lead podcast

Just how accessible is build-your-own-AI?

Oracle’s AI Agent Studio lets teams build custom agents, but how easy is it really?

AI is evolving, and businesses are shifting their focus from large language models to AI agents that can automate tasks and streamline workflows. But how easy is it to build an AI agent, and what impact could it have on IT teams?

In the latest episode of Ctrl Alt Lead, Tom sits down with Oracle’s UK country leader, Siobhan Wilson, at Oracle Cloudworld London 2025 to talk about this technological Build-a-Bear and what it means for IT leaders.

AI agents are the new hotness in enterprise IT (a sentence you never thought you’d read), and now Oracle is giving customers the tools to create their own.

Siobhan explains how AI Agent Studio works, who can use it, and how it integrates with existing systems. She also addresses common challenges, including data quality and legacy infrastructure, which can make AI adoption difficult.

Beyond AI, we touched on Oracle’s $5 billion investment in UK cloud infrastructure, including the reasons behind the move and what it signals for UK organisations looking to expand their cloud operations.

For IT leaders, the key takeaway is that AI adoption is not just about having the latest tools - it’s about knowing how to use them effectively.

If you’re considering AI agents for your organisation, listen now for valuable insights without the hype – and to get a clear picture of what Oracle’s AI strategy could mean for your IT roadmap.
