Platform Engineers NYC: Introducing Canyon: The AI for developer self-service
I attended a meetup with Sylvain Kalache and Kaspar Von Grünberg. It was a wide-ranging and forward-thinking discussion primarily around AI. The conversation oscillated between speakers ranging from skepticism and adoption to tips on avoiding hallucinations, eventually touching on Humanitec's Canyon[1] progress bringing AI in platform engineering and Rootly AI Labs'[2] Root Cause Analysis, and more.
It was all fascinating but I was hung up on the Machine Conversation Protocol (MCP) and its new complementary Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A). I was supposed to continue with my seminal work today... Nerd Snipe confirmed. Plus, who doesn't love a new standard?
