AI is transforming open source, helping analyze code, suggest fixes, and speed up PRs. But faster isn’t always better.

Used carelessly, AI can overwhelm maintainers and erode trust. Learn how to contribute responsibly: buff.ly/H6oi4cy

Nothing Prepares You for Your First Director Role… And That’s Kinda the Point

In April, I was given a chance that truly excited me: stepping in as the interim Director of Platform while my manager went on maternity leave. It wasn’t just a temporary assignment, to me: it was…

- AI is the interface, but the datastore is the real magic
- We see promise in AIOps tools, but without overhyping

Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation. 🤩

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 12d

💡 Key themes that stood out:

- Telemetry quality directly shapes AI effectiveness
- Instrumentation makes AI reliable and useful
- Canvas helps engineers parallelize debugging
- Honeycomb Intelligence uncovers insights you didn’t know to look for

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 12d

From the impact of telemetry quality, to using Canvas to debug Canvas, to how our datastore powers AI in ways other observability tools cannot, the discussions highlighted how we’re approaching AI differently.

That’s a wrap on our AI Team Ask Me Anything. 👏

Over the past few days, Morgante, Martin, Jamie, Purvi, and Talor shared their perspectives on building Honeycomb Intelligence and answered your questions.

We also encourage sharing your Canvas conversations with team members by unfurling Canvas links when they are shared in Slack.

The best way to level up your team is to share skills and knowledge. Canvas makes this easy by encouraging the sharing of conversations.

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 12d

With Canvas, we have continued this collaborative tradition. When looking at your previous Canvas conversations in Honeycomb, you will also see your teammates' Canvas conversations that will allow you to learn how your other team members are asking questions and guiding the Canvas investigations.

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 12d

Prior to the Canvas feature release, when you are using the query builder and exploring your data, all of your team members' queries are available to you in the sidebar. This can really help you see what others are querying and how they are running subsequent queries to refine their search.

Honeycomb @honeycomb.io · 12d

Observability can feel daunting when you don’t yet know what “good questions” look like. Honeycomb has always been about the collaborative nature of problem-solving.

For our last question, I want to highlight a great question from Wesley Faulkner: “Honeycomb can help with getting the right answers, but how do you educate users to find the right questions?”
