Production today is messy. There’s noise, complexity, and a constant stream of change. And while we’ve come a long way with observability, it still leans heavily on human foresight. Logs, metrics, alerts, they’re all things we had to think of ahead of time. But when we don’t? That’s where blind spots are born.
Ambient agents try to shift that model. These are always-on, proactive teammates who don’t wait for a prompt. They listen to everything happening in production. They surface things we’d likely miss.
In this talk, we’ll dive into what it takes to bring an ambient agent into your stack, how it listens, learns, and acts, and why this might just be the layer of intelligence your system’s been missing.
