EPISODE DESCRIPTION
"Human Coding is Dead," said Anish Agarwal, cofounder of Traversal, in our interview. So much of today's software is already written by AI. Tools like Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, and GitHub Copilot are no longer just assisting developers — they're replacing entire chunks of coding work. And as time goes on, AI will only write more. Anish puts it bluntly: "No one will understand the entire codebase." But this introduces a new challenge: Troubleshooting becomes far harder. That's exactly the problem Traversal was built to solve. Traversal is an AI-powered observability and site reliability platform that accelerates troubleshooting by automatically analyzing logs, metrics, and traces to pinpoint the root cause of failures. It proactively detects anomalies, recommends fixes, and in some cases even applies automated remediation. This makes debugging and reliability scalable in a world where vast portions of code are written by machines. Traversal recently raised a total of $48 million across its seed and Series A funding rounds. The Series A was led by Kleiner Perkins, while the seed round was led by Sequoia Capital, an early investor in NVIDIA. As the cofounder of Traversal, Anish shares additional insights in our interview.

EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of EO Studio, featuring Anish Agarwal, This is the Biggest Hidden Risk of AI | Traversal, Anish Agarwal explores AI-written code boosts outages; Traversal builds AI reliability engineer Agarwal argues the biggest hidden risk of AI coding is loss of system context, making outages harder and more expensive to debug as code volume explodes.
