    AI agents are triaging incidents and writing runbooks- but are LLMs actually the right tool for operational work? Sylvain Kalache, Head of AI Labs at Rootly, shares research on where AI SRE tools add real value, where they fall apart, and what it means for operational maturity when humans only see the hardest problems.

    Explores the 'AI code tsunami' and how massive, AI-generated code changes are forcing engineering teams to rethink traditional code reviews, observability, and the future of SRE roles. The conversation highlights a shift toward treating test environments like production and using narrowly scoped AI agents to manage system reliability, guided by simplified, binary SLIs and SLOs. Guest: Kyle Forster, founder and CEO of RunWhen (https://runwhen.com). Show Notes Available at https://podcast.certomodo.io/kyle-forster.html.
