The Autonomy Ladder: AI, Performance Engineering, and the Place of the Human
AI is climbing through performance engineering and observability the way autopilots climbed through aviation: eating the mechanical work first, then the analytical work, and now reaching for the interpretive work. This essay proposes a durable reading grid — an autonomy ladder transposed from autonomous driving — to locate any tool, present or future, and to ask the only question that stays stable over time: as the machine climbs each rung, where does the human move, and what must the human still know how to do?
AI: WAZE Syndrome and Bias Sensitivity
If we were to use generative AI in the same way we use Waze, we would end up accepting the ideas provided by the AI without thinking and allowing ourselves to be influenced by the biases, more or less deliberate, of those who design them. The ’Waze syndrome’ is a metaphor that illustrates our propensity to depend on AI without questioning the underlying datasets or the motivations of its creators.
