AI Meets DevOps: Harness x AI Collective
AI is showing up across DevOps, but in disconnected ways. Some teams are experimenting with deployment automation, others are applying AI to testing, but few are looking at how it all connects, or what happens when it does.
As AI moves deeper into the software delivery lifecycle, the challenge shifts to integration—understanding how these systems behave in production, where dependencies, failure modes, and operational complexity start to surface.
On April 25, we’re bringing together practitioners working through these realities and actively shipping AI across the lifecycle, building with it, running into constraints, and figuring out what it takes to make it reliable.
The format is simple: three lightning talks, a panel conversation, and a room of developers looking to go beyond surface-level discussions.
Agenda
9:30 – 10:00 AM — Doors open and networking
10:00 – 10:15 AM — Community intro and welcome
10:15 – 10:30 AM — TBD
10:30 – 10:45 AM — TBD
10:45 – 11:00 AM — TBD
11:00 – 11:30 AM — Fireside chat with panel + Q&A
11:30 – 12:00 PM — Networking and snacks
What you’ll walk away with
= Where AI is delivering real impact across software delivery and where it isn’t
= The operational and production gaps teams are running into as adoption scales
= Practical perspectives from engineers actively building and running these systems
= A chance to interact with a curated group of engineers working on similar problems
Who Should Attend
+ Engineers working across DevOps, platform, and infrastructure
+ Teams building or operating AI-enabled systems
+ Developers interested in how AI is changing software delivery in practice
+ Practitioners looking to move beyond experimentation into production
