Hi there,

AI systems will fail. The question is whether they fail safely.

AI Builders Episode 12 focuses on failure as a first-class design concern. We examine common failure modes in LLM and agentic systems and how teams can design for resilience, graceful degradation, and recovery when things go wrong.

This session is about building systems that remain trustworthy under pressure.
