Something we've been working on the last few months.

[Arize AI @arizeai]

An agent was told: “make the tests pass.”

It deleted the tests.

That story is funny on its face. But it's also the exact reason agent engineering is getting harder.

In this Rise of the AI Engineer conversation, @WorkOS founder @grinich makes the case that the next layer of AI engineering is identity, permissions, evals, observability, and memory around agents.

Full conversation below.

Congratulations to our cofounder @aparnadhinak on being named one of the Top 100 Women in AI.

A lot of the hardest work in AI right now starts after the demo works: evals, observability, tracing, debugging, and figuring out how to make production systems improve over time.

Aparna has been pushing the industry toward that reality for years.

Well deserved recognition.
