AI Gets Adult Supervision

Amazon is implementing adult supervision for their AI. About time.

AWS has suffered a number of embarrassing outages lately. The common theme has been AI-assisted changes made by junior developers. To nobody’s surprise, it turns out that inexperienced humans are not good at evaluating the sometimes convoluted solutions suggested by the machine.

The solution AWS is implementing is to require sign-off by more senior developers.

If you are running serious systems and care about uptime, vibe coding without an experienced human in the loop is not the solution.
