Live Q&A
summary
Discussion centers on concrete guardrails and failures: agents delete production databases and scale clusters to zero, one incident 20 minutes to break, 1 day to fix; customers report automation resolving 500,000 issues previously impossible by hand. Policy-as-code, attribute-then-role AuthZ, agent-specific certificates, type-checked infrastructure code, petabytes of config telemetry, K-means clustering and planned fine-tuning are used. Validation uses adversarial agents that try to bypass protections, while balancing safety signals against friction to realize claimed ROI.
