Why AI-Powered IT Automation is the Future
Posted on September 27, 2025
Businesses are facing increasingly complex IT environments. Traditional monitoring and security tools struggle to keep up with evolving threats and system demands. This is where AI-powered IT automation comes in. By leveraging machine learning to detect anomalies, predict failures, and recommend fixes, organisations can move from reactive firefighting to proactive resilience.
In this first blog post, I share my perspective on how AI will transform IT management. The shift towards self-healing systems isn’t just about reducing downtime—it’s about enabling growth without technical bottlenecks. Learn more about Arsalan Shemirani or review selected projects.

How SMEs Can Adopt AI‑Powered IT Automation (Safely & Effectively)
Posted on October 2, 2025
Many small and mid-sized organisations want the benefits of AI-powered IT automation but worry about complexity, safety, and control. As Arsalan Shemirani, my focus is helping teams adopt automation in ways that are measurable, reversible, and aligned with business goals.
A practical path starts with observer mode — monitor, learn, and recommend actions before any automatic changes are allowed. Next, introduce policy guardrails so only pre-approved actions can run automatically, and make every change auditable. This safeguards uptime and security while building trust with stakeholders.
Keep success criteria simple: reduced mean time to resolution, fewer repetitive tickets, and fewer out-of-hours incidents. Pair that with clear ownership and post-change reviews. Over time, automation shifts teams from firefighting to proactive resilience without exposing internal mechanics or sensitive data.
