Does anyone have first-hand experience with using an AI agent that has “participated” in the response to an actual incident in a genuinely diagnostic — or otherwise contextually-specific way?

Incident data I'd like to see: how effective were the completed action items that were implemented in the wake of previous incidents? How often did they actually help prevent incidents? How often did they end up making things harder?

1. PEOPLE keep things working.
2. When things break down, PEOPLE work to make the consequences much less than they might have been otherwise.

Both dynamics are, for the most part, invisible to management.

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?

If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

In 2015, I attended my first Resilience Engineering Symposium. I felt excited and nervous sharing our domain of software with such accomplished audience.

A decade later, I’m part of a fast-growing community of others in software passionate about RE, committed to creating a better future.

Meaningful learning from incidents requires expertise that most organizations do not have — but these skills can be learned!

We're getting a head start on 2025 with a workshop series on Incident Analysis.
