Everyone says they have observability—but are they actually using it?
In this episode, Pinja and Stefan unpack the gap between collecting data and creating real value. From DevEx and faster debugging to experimentation and business insights, observability only works when it’s treated as a product—not just a dashboard.
If your observability stack feels more like noise than insight, this one’s for you.

AI agents are evolving fast, but are we actually ready for them?
In this episode, we explore the real state of agentic AI and what it means for the future of work. From Anthropic’s latest research to real-world adoption gaps, we unpack where the technology is today versus where it’s heading. 
We dive into how AI is already transforming coding, knowledge work, and even everyday tasks like creating slides, while raising bigger questions about jobs, productivity, and human collaboration.
Will AI replace roles, or create entirely new ones? And how should organizations adapt before the gap between capability and adoption gets even wider?

AI copilots are everywhere in software development today. But the real transformation is only beginning.
In this episode of DevOps Sauna, Pinja and Stefan explore the Agentic Shift — the move from AI assistants that respond to prompts toward autonomous agents that can pursue goals, make decisions, and act independently inside complex systems.
They discuss what it really takes for organizations to move from AI copilots to AI coworkers, including data readiness, governance, security, and organizational maturity. Because deploying autonomous agents is not just a technical challenge — it’s also about responsibility, guardrails, and understanding the risks of letting AI operate with increasing autonomy.
You’ll also hear how concepts like domain-driven design, bounded contexts, and incident response automation may shape the first real use cases for autonomous AI agents in DevOps environments.
If your organization is experimenting with AI today, this conversation will help you understand what the next phase of AI adoption actually looks like.

AI is moving fast. Regulation is catching up.
In this episode of the DevOps Sauna, Pinja and Stefan are joined by Nora Fosse from Eficode to break down what AI governance really means in 2026.
With the EU AI Act coming into force and fines up to 7% of annual turnover, governance is no longer optional. But is it a brake on innovation or the engine that enables scale?
They explore the four pillars of AI governance and why, in the age of autonomous agents, hope is not a strategy.

AI is everywhere, but the real cost often stays hidden.
In this episode of DevOps Sauna, Pinja and Stefan dive into AI FinOps and explore why GPUs are expensive and why so much AI infrastructure ends up underutilized. They unpack hidden costs like idle hardware, power consumption, networking, and data movement, and explain why traditional Cloud FinOps doesn’t fully apply to AI workloads.
They also discuss how Kubernetes and Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) can help improve GPU utilization, and why visibility, ownership, and organizational maturity matter just as much as tooling.
