Introduction
This podcast started with a single question:
How can we humans use non-deterministic, often hallucinating LLMs to automate our infrastructure and help us with the job of software lifecycle management? Oh, and do it in a secure, tested, and auditable way 😉.
I’m Bret Fisher, and this is the Agentic DevOps Podcast. After the invention of AI Agents and the MCP standard in late 2024, I started this podcast in early '25 with a narrow topic focus… to document and advise how AI Agents, MCP tools, and large language models can be used in the real world for assisting with DevOps automation, platform engineering, and day-to-day systems operations… a podcast series hopefully without the hand-wavy AI hype or fevor dreams of a pure AI workforce.
I'm joined by my co-host, Nirmal Metha, and expert guests trying to make use of crazy texting robots.
