"Charts are good for users, not good for agents. Agents look at the underlying data and do deep analysis."
Mirko Novakovic (linkedin.com/in/mirkonovakovic) built Instana, sold it to IBM, and now he's building Dash0 (linkedin.com/company/dash0hq), rethinking observability for agents, not humans.
In conversation with Guy Podjarny (linkedin.com/in/guypo), he explains:
• why OpenTelemetry turned out to be perfect for AI
• how UX changes when agents are your primary users
• why interactive collaboration beats static chat outputs
• the survival question for observability vendors in the AI era
Only 2-3 people in most companies can truly debug production. That knowledge lives in their heads and disappears when they leave. Mirko's betting agents will change that.
