Spend less time on repetitive tasks with the new automation feature in Grafana Assistant

The ability to schedule regular tasks, such as cron jobs, has been around for decades. So why are we still running the same AI prompts by hand every day? As you use Grafana Assistant, our AI-powered observability agent, to stay on top of the state of your system, you likely find yourself asking the same questions. Maybe you want to know what changed overnight, or whether yesterday's deployment hurt latency, or which dashboards or skills are drifting out of date.

Bridging Bedrock Skills with AI: A Conversation with Jeremy Bradberry

What happens when decades of operational experience meet modern AI-driven networking? In the latest episode of Next-Gen Network Heroes, Bob Slevin sits down with Jeremy Bradberry, Senior Network Engineer at Delaware North, to explore how network engineers can modernize infrastructure without losing sight of the operational realities behind the technology. Jeremy shares lessons learned from working on legacy manufacturing systems, how AI is helping engineers analyze data and automate workflows faster than ever before, and why strong standards still matter in today’s AI era.

Bring Your Playwright Suite to Harness: No Rewrites, No Infrastructure, AI-Powered Triage Built In | Harness Blog

Key Takeaway: Harness AI Test Automation now runs existing Playwright suites without code changes, adds AI-powered failure triage, and integrates test results directly into build and deployment pipelines. ‍

The AI Agent Accountability Gap: Why Network Policies, API Gateways, And RBAC Are Not Enough

In The Five Pillars of AI Agent Accountability: A Diagnostic Framework for Engineering Leaders, we walked through each pillar of AI agent accountability (traceability, authorization provenance, identity and ownership, policy at scale, and human oversight) and argued that most enterprises today sit at Level 0 or Level 1 of the Accountability Maturity Model. The most common reaction we get when we share that framework is some version of: “We’re already covered. We have network policies.

Let AI Run Your Cloud Infra? Ex-VMware & SAP Architects Weigh In. (ft. TechWorld with Nana)

Can you trust AI to run your platform? AI can now spin up production infrastructure in minutes — but speed cuts both ways. In this episode, Nana(TechWorld with Nana) sits down with Doron Grinstein and Dan Wilson, two architects who built, broke, and fixed platforms at VMware and SAP, for a no-hype look at platform engineering in the age of AI.

AI in Insurance Claims Operations: Where Automation Delivers Real ROI

Traditional insurance claims operations are under immense pressure to change. What has shifted now is the margin for delayed results. Today's customers demand faster updates on claims, while insurers need more robust ways to detect sophisticated fraud patterns. The problem is, simply adding more people isn't a sustainable solution when teams are already dealing with complex documentation. Where most insurers rely on legacy systems that involve endless manual handoffs and document-heavy processes, the modern pace requires a change.

Top 5 AI-Powered Database Query Tools for Data Analysts

Data analysts spend a large part of their workday translating business questions into database logic. A stakeholder asks why revenue changed. A product manager wants to compare cohorts. A finance team needs a variance explained. The question may sound simple, but the path to the answer often involves finding the right tables, understanding how fields are defined, writing SQL, validating joins, checking filters, and making sure the result matches the intended business meaning.

AI-Powered Quality Control Is Changing Sustainability Reporting in Construction

Sustainability reporting is becoming a critical requirement across the construction industry as regulators, developers, and procurement teams demand more accurate environmental data from manufacturers. Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), once considered optional documentation, are increasingly being used as a deciding factor in major construction tenders and compliance evaluations.

Run your first microbuild in 5 minutes

AI coding agents produce code faster than most teams can validate it. Without a validation step between the agent and CI, every problem gets caught after the push, and feedback arrives long after the agent has lost context. Agents need consistent feedback while they’re working so that small failures get fixed locally and CI stays focused on moving code into production.
