How do we manage the AI that manages our IT systems? As enterprises move toward autonomous operations powered by AI agents, the challenges of complexity, trust, and control are greater than ever. In this episode, Red Hat CTO Chris Wright sits down with Bernd Greifeneder, Founder and CTO of Dynatrace, to discuss how to build a reliable foundation for the future of agentic AI. They dive into the necessity of causal AI, the paradox of observing AI agents, and why high-quality data is the key to building trust.
