LF Live Webinar: Fast, Fragile, and Burned Out: The Human Cost of AI-Scale Delivery

Sponsored by Harness

AI coding tools are helping engineering teams create and ship software at unprecedented speed. But our research from 700 enterprise practitioners and engineering leaders reveals a troubling counterweight: 71% say releases or production issues require developers to work evenings or weekends at least weekly, while more than half report frequent or constant burnout.

The surprising finding is that developers do not blame AI. The teams experiencing the most burnout are also among its most enthusiastic users. The real problem is the widening mismatch between AI-scale code generation and delivery systems still dependent on manual testing, fragmented tools, human-operated releases, and reactive incident response.

In this session, attendees will learn:
Why after-hours work should be treated as a software-delivery metric
How high deployment velocity can conceal weak stability and growing rework
Why AI adoption amplifies the strengths and weaknesses of the underlying delivery system
Which capabilities help reduce repetitive toil, deployment risk, and incident burden
How golden paths, automated testing and governance, progressive delivery, verification, rollback, and resilience testing can make AI-scale delivery sustainable

The session will close with a practical demonstration of how the Harness Software Delivery Agent helps delivery systems validate, govern, deploy, and recover without requiring people to absorb every failure manually.

Fedora 45 Beta is here, bringing GNOME 51, Linux Kernel 7.2, major security improvements, a completely modernized Linux console, Fedora Atomic improvements, and some surprisingly big changes under the hood.

But Fedora 45 is also a strange release. One of its most anticipated features — automatic Btrfs full-system snapshots and rollback — didn’t make it. KDE users also aren’t getting Plasma 6.8 in the Beta, while several of Fedora’s biggest improvements are things most users will never actually see.

In this video, we take a close look at what’s new in Fedora 45 Beta and what these changes actually mean for desktop Linux users.

We cover:

• GNOME 51 and its performance improvements
• GNOME’s new Wayland background blur infrastructure
• New GNOME Files, Sushi, Maps and Calendar improvements
• Why automatic Btrfs snapshots and rollback didn’t make Fedora 45
• Fedora’s stricter RPM package signature verification
• kmscon replacing the traditional Linux virtual console experience
• Fedora 45 KDE and the Plasma 6.8 situation
• Linux Kernel 7.2 and Mesa 26.2
• Fedora Silverblue, Kinoite and Atomic Desktop improvements
• The new Anaconda WebUI and remote installation features
• oo7 replacing GNOME Keyring as Fedora’s new secrets backend
• New security hardening and ptrace restrictions
• Python 3.15, GCC 16.2, glibc 2.44, systemd 262 and NetworkManager 1.58
• Fedora Asahi Remix support for Apple M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max
• Whether Fedora 45 Beta is worth installing right now

Fedora 45 may not completely transform the desktop visually, but underneath GNOME and KDE, Fedora is modernizing some surprisingly old parts of the Linux stack while continuing its push toward stronger security, newer technology and a more polished desktop experience.

Fedora 45 stable is expected on October 20, 2026.

Generative AI & LLMs: From GPT to Open Source Models

Generative AI & LLMs: From GPT to Open Source Models

Generative AI & LLMs: From GPT to Open Source Models

For most of AI’s history the focus was analyzing and predicting. Generative AI creates. Here is what changed, and how to choose between proprietary and open source models.

Terms covered:
– Generative AI: AI that produces text, code, images, summaries and answers on demand
– GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer): the architecture behind most large language models
– Proprietary LLMs: powerful, easy to start with, priced per token, and your data goes to a third-party server
– Open Source LLMs: weights you can download, deploy on your own infrastructure and fine-tune, with no per-token cost and no data leaving your environment

Most serious deployments need both. Proprietary for speed and access, open source for control, privacy and cost at production scale.
