Startup wants to make AI agents safe for DevOps duty

Vera Platforms, a startup founded by researchers at the University of Michigan, believes there's a way to make agents trustworthy enough to handle DevOps. DevOps, which focuses on how software gets deployed and operated, is a particularly unforgiving affair. While AI agents have some leeway to make mistakes and correct errors as they generate code and work through a prompt, it's an entirely different matter when they make changes to real infrastructure running production workloads.
