This content is a technical post advocating for AI-powered automation of tedious software monitoring tasks. It champions labor liberation, professional dignity, and economic well-being by framing automation as freedom from drudgery and support for rest, leisure, and higher-value work. However, it neglects privacy implications of continuous system monitoring, ignores equity/access barriers to automation technology, and does not address systemic fairness or international dimensions of AI distribution.

Art 12 ↔ Art 25 —Privacy (Article 12) is subordinated to economic productivity (Article 25): continuous automated monitoring invades privacy to improve efficiency, with no discussion of privacy safeguards or consent.
Art 2 ↔ Art 25 —Non-discrimination (Article 2) and standard of living (Article 25) conflict: automation benefits flow primarily to already-privileged professional workers, potentially widening inequality and excluding low-income/less-skilled workers from productivity gains.
I don't understand the workflow of having multiple new bugs everyday that need fixed. Is there bad code being shipped? Are there 1000 devs and it's just this persons' job to fix everyone's bugs? Is this an extremely old and complicated codebase they are improving? Not trying to be snarky - I just don't understand how every day there is new bugs that are just error messages.
If there are new bugs every day that need fixed is the AI really good enough to know the fix from just an error?
Apps written in an exceptions language (Java, JavaScript, PHP, etc..) are really annoying to monitor as everything that isn't the happy path triggers an 'error'/'fatal' log/metric.
Yes, you can technically work around it with (near) Go-level error verbosity (try/catches everywhere on every call) but I've never seen a team actually do that.
Modern languages that don't throw exceptions for every error like Rust, Go, and Zig make much more sane telemetry reports in my experience.
On this note, a login failure is not an error, it's a warning because there is no action to take. It's an expected outcome. Errors should be actionable. WARN should be for things that in aggregate (like login failures) point to an issue.
Generally I think this happens when people don’t monitor for errors on a regular basis. People only notice if things are actively broken for customers, and tons of small non-fatal bugs slip through and build up over time.
I'm not sure if this is what the writer was getting at, but I tend to check telemetry for my production applications regularly not because I'm looking for things that would fire alerts, but to keep a sense of what production looks like. Things like request rate, average latency, top request paths etc. It's not about knowing something is broken, it's about knowing what healthy looks like.
Understanding what your code looks like in production gives you a lot better sense of how to update it, and how to fix it when it does inevitably break. I think having AI checking for you will make this basically impossible, and that probably makes it a pretty bad idea.
Login failure is like the most important error you'll track. A login failure isn't necessarily actionable but a spike of thousands of them for sure is. No single system has been more responsible for causing outages in my career than auth. And I get that it's annoying when they appear in your Rollbar but sometimes Login Failed is the only signal you get that something is wrong.
Some 3rd party IdP saying "nope" can be innocuous when it's a few people but a huge problem when it's because they let their cert/application token expire.
And I can already hear the "it should be a metric with an alert" and you're absolutely right. Except that it requires that devs take the positive action of updating the metric on login failures vs doing nothing and letting the exception propagate up. And you just said login failures aren't errors and "bad password" obviously isn't an error so no need to update the metric on that and cause chatty alerts. Except of course that one time a dev accidentally changed the hashing algorithm. Everyone was really bad at typing their password that day for some reason.
Almost no one actually knows how to set up their monitoring. Like, they know the words but not the full picture or how the pieces should actually fit together. Then they do shit like this to try and make up for that fact.
