Survey: AI Coding Exacerbates Existing DevOps Workflow Issues
A global survey of 700 software engineering practices published this week finds that thanks to increased reliance on artificial intelligence (AI) coding tools, well over a third (35%) are either achieving daily or more frequent product deployments, with 36% deploying software multiple times per week. However, more than half (51%) also noted AI-generated code leads […]
AI Is Forcing DevOps Teams to Rethink Observability Data Management
As AI coding tools accelerate software delivery, they are also intensifying a problem DevOps and SRE teams have been dealing with for years: the unchecked growth of observability data. In this conversation, the founders of Sawmills argue that telemetry volume is no longer just a cost issue. It is becoming a data quality problem that […]
Sorry, Charlie, StarKist Wants AI With Good Taste
A surprising AI experiment showed that feeding a model sloppy code didn’t just produce bad programming, it produced bad behavior. The result points to something philosophers and DevOps engineers have long understood: Character, culture and incentives shape systems far more than rules alone.
The Observability Bill is Coming Due – and AI Wrote Most of It
Observability has always had a data quality problem. AI coding agents just made it catastrophically worse. Shimmy sits down with the co-founders of Sawmills to dig into why unmanaged telemetry is the unglamorous DevOps crisis that is quietly killing budgets — and what an agentic telemetry management platform actually does about it.
Gemini Code Assist Gets Agent Auto-Approve, Inline Diffs, and Custom Commands to Speed Up the Core Coding Loop
