ANECDOTE

From Observability To Agentic Automation

  • Spiros and his co-founder built observability tools and OpenTelemetry before Resolve AI existed.
  • They spent more time firefighting production systems than building, which inspired agentic automation.
INSIGHT

Effectiveness Grows Over Time

  • Agentic systems can handle many repeat incidents and generalize to novel problems by reasoning from symptoms.
  • The key metric is improvement over time (day 30, 60, 90) as agents learn from the environment.
ADVICE

Verify Claims And Measure Real Performance

  • Build strong evaluation sets and measure where agents succeed or fail before deploying widely.
  • Require agents to verify claims with citations and present chains-of-thought for quick human validation.
