The way we write software has changed in the past couple of years. Completely. The way we operate it in production has had to play catch up. Toil is still a thing. Pager alerts too, although those are happening on the phone. Email notification about outages are still filtered and routed to a folder which no one checks. Atleast some thing remains unchanged. In the face of dramatically new ops workflows, what's the role of an SRE? Are they finding ways to cope or reaching the end of the proverbial rope? Come to this talk to see how each AI "black box" is being instrumented and operated in production. Let's explore new tools and techniques together in this new AI-driven landscape. Let's learn from each other about how AI is helping SREs in ways we hadn't thought of before. Let's all develop a shared understanding about what the future is expected to bring for the SRE community.
