If your company operates in a modern digital environment, then there’s a good chance questionable reliability is hurting you competitively. On the other hand, every hour your engineering team spends on operations comes at the expense of developing your product. So, what are you supposed to do?

Large Language Models provide a powerful "sidekick" in resolving incidents. Our talk opens by exploring what LLMs can do when things go wrong: from parsing your codebase to debug, to ad-hoc testing scripts, to brainstorming solutions with engineers. These features ought to be considered by orgs of all sizes. Not only do they reduce the time sink of incidents, they open up that time for feature development, compounding advantages. LLMs aren’t perfect, and their common failure modes are critical when applied to incident response. We’ll cover some of these failures and how they’d look in the context of incident response, including hallucination, misprioritization, and black boxing. This isn’t the end of the world. Orgs just need to weigh these risks versus the speed and convenience of LLM incident response. To mitigate the risk, orgs need to invest in people. We’ll show how the resilience, adaptability, and knowledge of your incident response teams can compensate for the risks of LLMs. Emily Arnott Community Manager at Blameless @emilyarnott8 Emily is the community manager at Blameless, an incident workflow solution.

Join us for a webinar with CEO Jim Gochee and COO Ken Gavranovic as they discuss how Blameless customers are leveraging a new paradigm for incident response to improve operational efficiency.

In this talk, Blameless’s Emily Arnott discusses The New Reliability, which is based on product health, customer happiness, and socio-technical resilience.

Assemble the right team for incident management fast with the new bidirectional integration of Blameless and OpsGenie. Blameless's Aaron Lober, Paul Chu, and Nicolas Philip show you how to seamlessly connect your alerting and service registry to your incident response processes.

Product reliability requires investment from all areas of the business. Technology leaders must effectively communicate the implications of service reliability to the rest of the organization. As a leader, how do you prove that a more reliable product is critical to success? Experts from BetterCloud, Machinify and Blameless come together to discuss how to talk to your executive leadership team about reliability in this webinar.

Join Thai Wood and Matt Davis as they discuss building an effective incident on-call program by looking at all angles from the socio-technical complexities to training, policies, and learning from incidents.

In this episode, Lauren Caliolio, Director of Reliability Engineering at Nike, and Cat Sewel, Director of Engineering at Nubank, join Matt Davis and Kurt Andersen from Blameless to give the proper severity to the topic of incident severity. Incident management always begins with prioritizing and triaging based on the incident’s impact. Judging that impact isn’t trivial! Join our panel as they break down the nuances and details of incident severity.
