In one incident in December, engineers at AWS allowed its in-house Kiro β€œagentic” coding tool to make changes that sparked a 13-hour disruption, according to four sources familiar with the matter. The AI, ill-fatedly, had decided to β€œdelete and recreate the environment,” the sources said.

@nixCraft This is wild. AI coding tools need guardrails β€” especially in production. We're building developer APIs where AI agents can test endpoints safely before touching anything real. The "move fast and break things" era of AI-assisted coding needs better sandboxing.
