Reliability in the Age of AI:  What High-Impact SRE Teams Get Right

February 25th | 10 AM PST / 1 PM EST

AI is changing how systems are built and operated—but it has not changed the core challenge SRE teams face: maintaining reliable systems as complexity accelerates. As AI expands automation and decision-making, the cost of misunderstanding systems significantly increases.

In this moderated discussion, Todd Underwood, Niall Murphy, and Ronak Desai explore how high-impact SRE teams approach reliability in an AI-driven world. The conversation focuses on operational understanding, decision quality, and confidence at scale—rather than tools, automation, or speed for its own sake.

This session is designed for practitioners and leaders who want to think clearly about reliability as AI becomes part of production operations.
