Meta builds a hierarchical, parent-orchestrated agent system that runs in production to detect, root-cause and mitigate incidents, claiming reliability gains that match or exceed humans in key scenarios and citing examples where more than 100 engineers used to triage outages now get AI help. Specific deployed components include Nia AI detecting incidents missed by standard monitors, Caltech Genie scanning datasets and mapping edge risk, and a network KB called Net-Immer for agent self-improvement; LLM-judge, human-in-the-loop learning, and guardrails address hallucination and safety.
