AI in software engineering has moved from being an autocomplete tool to "Agentic AI", where these AI systems are actively reading our environment, coming up with multi-step plans, hitting APIs, and modifying cloud infrastructure on their own.

This speed of AI comes with risks at enterprise scale. An agent that went rogue can trigger a domino effect of system failures or blow through our AWS budget while you are away from your desk, getting coffee.

The Safe Speed Limit for AI Autonomy

I would like to use the Self-driving cars framework to express the level of AI autonomy in the systems.For enterprise systems, right safe speed limit sits at Level 3 (Conditional Autonomy). At this stage, AI can handle multi-file changes and run loops within strict boundaries, but a human still has to sign off and pushing past this will end up in troubled waters.
