************************************************
90% of enterprises are rushing to deploy autonomous AI agents - but they are accumulating technical debt at machine speed. In this InfoQ video, Tracy Bannon exposes why "reckless speed" is causing massive architectural amnesia across the SDLC, and provides the concrete governance framework you need to keep control.

Learn why higher automation requires more human verification, how code maintainability has dropped by 50% according to recent data, and how to implement a Minimum Viable Identity pattern to secure your agentic workflows before chaos strikes.
