LaunchDarkly CEO Predicts Agents Automate Software Fixes

At AWS re:Invent, LaunchDarkly co-founder and CEO Edith Harbaugh said customers now release software dozens of times per day, and that AI agents should be treated as another backend tool. She predicted a near-term shift to self-healing software where agents detect failures, generate fixes, commit code and roll out patches, and noted LaunchDarkly's AI configs help test LLMs and manage feature flags.
