Observability has always had a data quality problem. AI coding agents just made it catastrophically worse. Shimmy sits down with the co-founders of Sawmills to dig into why unmanaged telemetry is the unglamorous DevOps crisis that is quietly killing budgets — and what an agentic telemetry management platform actually does about it.
Forget the Vibe-Coders, We Need to Support Responsible AI-Assisted Development
While AI tools are increasingly used in development, they should enhance rather than replace human input. Developers must shift from merely writing code to orchestrating and validating AI-generated code. This ‘spec coding’ emphasizes creating specifications that guide both AI and human efforts. Infrastructure must support this transition, with safeguards like reliable build pipelines and automated security scans. Ultimately, AI is a tool to aid developers, but the nuanced responsibilities of design, security, and performance remain firmly in human hands, ensuring responsible and effective use.
